Planetcast named technology partner by beIN Asia Pacific
Planetcast, a leading provider of broadcast technology and media services, has announced that it has been selected by beIN Asia Pacific as its strategic technology partner to enhance the management and delivery of programming for 14 HD sports channels across Southeast Asia and Australia.
By utilising Planetcast’s NexC suite of cloud-first products and services, this collaboration will enable beIN to optimise content preparation, processing, distribution, and monetisation, supporting business growth across the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
Planetcast Media Services’ support for beIN’s live sports content management and delivery is based on two key NexC modules: Cloud.X Turbo, an agile, high-performance sports playout solution optimised for multiplatform distribution with ultra-low latency, and Recaster, the managed IP delivery solution that uses public internet to deliver broadcast-quality video streams globally.
In addition to playout and IP-based content delivery, Planetcast will provide a comprehensive range of other services tailored to beIN’s dynamic needs across broadcast, over-the-top (OTT), and free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) services – including media management, onboarding, and disaster recovery.
