The Challenges You faceThe Blockcast AdvantageWhich Broadcaster Are You?

THE CHALLENGES YOU FACE

Monetizing Data Capacity

Whether you are a satellite provider, 5G broadcaster, or ATSC 3.0 station, you have a data channel. But how do you deliver streaming video through it? You know that monetizing this data channel could mean a new source of revenue but doing so requires different technology and expertise.

THE CHALLENGES YOU FACE

Delivery via Devices

Viewers use a host of devices to watch video now. But not all broadcasters can reach them. To reach those devices with your content, you'll need to leverage your data channel and deliver over the internet. But that's not as easy as it might seem.

THE CHALLENGES YOU FACE

Quality Streaming

Broadcasters haven’t really had to contend with quality issues over the past few decades. TV just works and the picture, when it’s via QAM rather than OTA, is perfect. But that’s not the case with streaming. If you want to leverage your data channel and deliver streaming video, you'll need to understand how to ensure that high quality.

The Blockcast Advantage

Manage Capacity

Maximize multicast, minimize unicast

With a Blockcast MAHP attached to your data channel, you can leverage the multicast you are familiar with to deliver streaming video over the internet. This will help maximize capacity, allowing more data to be delivered (and monetized) while ensuring the best possible viewer experience.

Create Revenue Streams

Join the content delivery ecosystem

As a broadcaster, you may not see yourself generating revenue from delivering content. But with a Blockcast MAHP connected to your data channel, you can do just that. Connected to the Blockcast Network, content owners will be able to select your capacity to deliver content to their subscribers.

Keep Quality High

Ensure maximum revenue from your data channel

With a Blockcast MAHP in your network, you'll be able to protect data channel capacity by leveraging multicast. In doing so, you'll ensure that streams are high bitrate, even 4K, and that adverse streaming challenges, like buffering and startup time, are addressed.

Which Kind of Broadcaster Are You?

Television Station

Do you have towers? Are you ATSC 3.0 enabled? If so, then you have an available data channel which you can monetize with a Blockcast MAHP.

Blockcast’s Solution

With Blockcast, you can not only deliver multicast content but you can also join the Open Capacity Marketplace to offer your new data channel capacity to content providers who want to leverage your over-the-air reach.

Satellite

If you have a bird in the sky, whether low-Earth orbit (LEO) or geostationary (GEO), and offer internet services, then you can add content delivery to that mix.

Blockcast’s Solution

With a Blockcast MAHP, you can protect your capacity (by leveraging multicast) while connecting to the Open Capacity Marketplace to offer your capacity for internet content delivery to content providers who want to reach the geographies you serve.

Mobile

If you can broadcast over 5G, use it to deliver internet content. Multicast over your eMBMS data channel protects core network capacity while ensuring high-quality streaming.

Blockcast’s Solution

That all starts with a Blockcast MAHP. What’s more, you can connect that MAHP to the Open Capacity Marketplace and provide your capacity to content providers who want to reach your users.
