DESCRIPTION:In 2016\, NBCUniversal began the project to design and build th
e new global headquarters for Telemundo Enterprises in Miami Florida. The
facility that became known as Telemundo Center would feature 13 production
studios and 7 control rooms supporting scripted episodic content\, daily
live news and sports programming\, beginning with FIFA World Cup 2018. To
support the scale and flexibility required for a facility of this magnitud
e\, the key technical design consideration was the use of a software-defin
ed video network infrastructure. At the time of launch in spring of 2018\,
Telemundo Center was home to the largest SMPTE ST 2110 environment in the
world\, consisting of over 12\,000 unique HD sources and 150\,000 multica
st streams across audio and video. \n\nThis paper will explore the major c
onsiderations and challenges in building such a large scale\, all-IP broad
cast production facility. We will demonstrate design factors around switch
ing of video flows\, redundancy\, control and orchestration\, PTP master c
lock systems and handoffs to multi-manufacturer SMPTE ST 2110 devices as w
ell as non-IP enabled devices. This paper will also discuss our experience
and lessons learned with utilizing a Software Defined Network (SDN) contr
ol plane and routing commands that abstract the underlying physical and li
nk-level connectivity.\n\nSome key topics include approaches to pooled res
ources and management of centralized operations\; gaps in existing standar
ds\, with strategies to overcome limitations\; the promise and the peril o
f differing ergonomic and performance characteristics of SMPTE ST 2110 end
points – support for redundancy\, clean switching\, and audio/video synchr
onization.\n\nWe will propose a reference architecture for supporting a GP
S-sourced\, large-scale PTP distribution to over 500 end points and explor
e some of the limitations and corresponding solutions encountered in PTP d
istribution at scale. Finally\, we will demonstrate new software-defined i
nfrastructure concepts such as virtual sources and virtual destinations wh
ich replaced legacy physical design patterns in this build.

TRANSP:OPAQUE
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:In 2016\, NBCUniversal began the project to de
sign and build the new global headquarters for Telemundo Enterprises in Mi
ami Florida. The facility that became known as Telemundo Center would fea
ture 13 production studios and 7 control rooms supporting scripted episodi
c content\, daily live news and sports programming\, beginning with FIFA W
orld Cup 2018. To support the scale and flexibility required for a facilit
y of this magnitude\, the key technical design consideration was the use o
f a software-defined video network infrastructure. At the time of launch
in spring of 2018\, Telemundo Center was home to the largest SMPTE ST 2110
environment in the world\, consisting of over 12\,000 unique HD sources a
nd 150\,000 multicast streams across audio and video.
\nThis p
aper will explore the major considerations and challenges in building such
a large scale\, all-IP broadcast production facility. We will demonstrate
design factors around switching of video flows\, redundancy\, control and
orchestration\, PTP master clock systems and handoffs to multi-manufactur
er SMPTE ST 2110 devices as well as non-IP enabled devices. This paper wil
l also discuss our experience and lessons learned with utilizing a Softwar
e Defined Network (SDN) control plane and routing commands that abstract t
he underlying physical and link-level connectivity.
\nSome key
topics include approaches to pooled resources and management of centralize
d operations\; gaps in existing standards\, with strategies to overcome li
mitations\; the promise and the peril of differing ergonomic and performan
ce characteristics of SMPTE ST 2110 endpoints – support for redundancy\, c
lean switching\, and audio/video synchronization.
\nWe will pro
pose a reference architecture for supporting a GPS-sourced\, large-scale P
TP distribution to over 500 end points and explore some of the limitations
and corresponding solutions encountered in PTP distribution at scale. Fin
ally\, we will demonstrate new software-defined infrastructure concepts su
ch as virtual sources and virtual destinations which replaced legacy physi
cal design patterns in this build.
