Media and video transport technology specialist LTN has announced a partnership enabling Spanish-language media and content company, TelevisaUnivision, to migrate to IP-based video distribution.
According to LTN, the long-term agreement provides TelevisaUnivision greater flexibility, scale, and intelligence in live video distribution with LTN’s fully managed, IP-based transmission solution, LTN Wave.
TelevisaUnivision will deploy LTN Wave to deliver its full portfolio of 17 broadcast networks and cable channels via IP-based distribution, bringing live news, sports, and entertainment content to millions of viewers across the US, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.
