The data traffic of broadcasters for the IP streaming of audio and video content has mushroomed in recent years. UHD and HDR video streaming already requires very high bandwidths of over 40 Mbit/s these days. With future 5G technology, 8K video streams will place even greater, enormous demands on broadcasters.

SWISS TXT is involved in this project and tests the provision (CDN & streaming) of VOD and live content for mobile use up to 8K. The Communication & PR department implements activities such as product videos as part of its communication mandate.
