The recently held Delhi Common wealth Games 2010 was a great success for India winning more gold medals and organising the event with grandeur. The opening and finishing ceremonies will be in memory for a long time. Millions of television viewers prized every moment of the games thanks to technology in the background by Cisco to broadcast high definition (HD) videos and images of the games. The CWG 2010 was the first global project where huge volume of HD uncompressed video (~400Gbps) was broadcast to help viewers witness continuous high quality video of the games, said Sandeep Raina, Senior VP, India & SAARC, Cisco.
Cisco deployed its largest ‘Internet Protocol (IP) Next Generation Network’ Medianet solution – this combines video technologies in home, business, and service provider networks -- for any sporting event at the CWG 2010, he said. Also, for the first time in the history of broadcasting, a disaster revival site was deployed for the main studio (IBC) for the HD uncompressed video contribution service using IP multicast technology. This solution enabled the Government of India and CWG Organising Committee to deliver games applications, communication services and standards of teamwork services to athletes, officials and guests from all over the world, he said.
The services were delivered on the communications network from MTNL and the completion was undertaken by HCL Info systems. The deployment included ‘quad-play architecture’ that bundles mobile, fixed-line, Internet and TV services into one package. The Cisco unified communication and teamwork solution was provided through 3500 IP phones including high-end video phones, he said.Sandeep says Cisco’s IP NGN infrastructure had two separate networks Managed Data Network (MDN) and Broadcast Network (BN). Both the networks were built on IP MPLS technology to deliver multiple services concurrently.
