Sydney, Australia - 13 January, 2025 - Techtel, a leading broadcast technology systems specialist, has successfully completed the delivery of a professional-grade IPTV Head-End solution for Accor Stadium in partnership with Venues NSW. This milestone project, delivered in mid-October, was completed in under two months, well within the timeline set by the client.

The Accor Stadium project was a new development, built from scratch with no prior IP system in place. Venues NSW, which manages the system's operation at Accor Stadium, provided the infrastructure, including the networking, while Techtel served as the lead IPTV Head-End system integrator for this project. Techtel implemented a cutting-edge system tailored to the unique requirements of the world-class entertainment venue.

Techtel managed the entire process, from consultancy, system design and configuration to installation, integration, and support. The solution was optimised to meet the unique needs of Accor Stadium, offering high-level redundancy for uninterrupted operations, low-latency feed delivery to on-site screens, and support to accept and process various source formats. Comprehensive User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and Site Acceptance Test (SAT) ensured a successful deployment with seamless functionality.

The solution included fully redundant Head-End based on Appear technology and redundant low latency Harmonic CP9000 encoders to handle main and backup local SDI feeds. Each encoder was fully licensed to process up to eight HD or two UHD feeds. The 1 1 Appear IPTV Head-End supports IP in/out, DVB-T/S/S2 interfaces. The high density DVB-CA modules on the platform ensure secure and flexible content acquisition from the major Pay TV provider in Australia to add to the service lineup. Additional components included HDMI encoders by Kiloview to accommodate supplementary feeds.

The entire Head-End system and the local delivery network are fully monitored by Nomad Pro probe, a state-of-the-art multi-format analyser by Bridge Technologies. This portable probe provides deep transport stream, UDP and RF measurements at critical ingress and egress points, ensuring operators have in-depth visibility into signal health at key points for maintaining high quality service.

Techtel's scope of work included end-to-end delivery of a robust, professional-grade IPTV Head-End system, including:

Comprehensive systems design and integration

Supply, installation, and ongoing support

Customised design and configuration of the Head-End IP System

Project and site management

Physical installation and integration into the stadiums network

Payam Safa, Techtel's Business Development Strategist commented We are honored to partner with Venues NSW to equip Accor Stadium with state-of-the-art technology designed to enhance operational efficiency and elevate the fan experience. Leveraging our proven expertise in delivering and integrating TV head-ends across the region, Techtel seamlessly deployed a multi-vendor system tailored to meet Accor Stadium's media and entertainment requirements-efficiently and cost-effectively.

Tim Blight, General Manager of Venues NSW added Techtel's expertise was instrumental in the successful delivery of the IPTV Head-End solution at Accor Stadium. Their ability to manage a complex IPTV head-end project within the expected timeline speaks volumes about their technical capability and professionalism. This new system enhances Accor Stadium's operational efficiency and ensures a high-quality experience for all who visit.

This project builds on Techtel's proven track record of delivering advanced broadcast and AV solutions for Australia's premier stadiums, reinforcing its reputation as a leader in the field.
