Genesis Networks to Deliver Live Tennis Coverage from Wimbledon for Broadcast Clients around the World

High-Definition Tennis Coverage Delivered to Broadcasters on Three Continents

NEW YORK — Following on the heels of another successful French Open tennis tournament, Genesis Networks moved their Special Event services team into London to deliver every serve, volley and smash from Wimbledon for their broadcast clients around the world.  In addition to the extensive capabilities of Genesis Networks to deliver fulltime Standard Definition and High Definition channels for clients, this year’s Wimbledon will also offer packages including streaming, data, intercom, and telephony services to fully encompass the advantages of an IP solution. 

With the ability to provide flexible and scalable transmission services, including High Definition (HD) and streaming video feeds from the venue with a minimal footprint on site, and the reach to deliver across  5 continents, Genesis Networks is also able to offer services for occasional use clients from partner venues around the London area.  Equipped with tape playout and camera plug-and-play service, Genesis Networks partners such as SNG Broadcast Services can accept walk-up customers that need the reach of a worldwide fiber network that delivers to 71 cities. 

"We are very pleased with our continued success as a Special Events provider to broadcasters and rightsholders from around the globe" commented Mike Antonovich, president and CEO of Genesis Networks.  "Our dynamic and scalable global fiber network offers our clients the connectivity and flexibility to meet the wide variety of their transmission needs."
