The Challenge
Coverage of a multi-stage cycling race across France and Spain required reliable bonded uplinks at multiple finish-line positions, each with variable mobile coverage depending on the stage location. Equipment needed to be rapidly deployable and operable by non-specialist broadcast crews.
The Solution
SmartWifi supplied a fleet of pre-configured Kiloview P3 units with pre-loaded SIM cards across four European networks. Each unit was shipped to the production team with full written and video setup instructions. Our engineers provided remote monitoring and technical support throughout the race, with the ability to adjust streaming parameters remotely as network conditions changed at each stage location.
The Result
Successful live coverage across all stages. Remote support resolved two SIM card issues without requiring engineer travel to the location. All stages broadcast live without outage.
