This is in response to the growing consumption and demand of live media from consumers. In today’s reality, consumers expect live events to be broadcast at real-time and at a high quality but without higher tariffs.  As a result, content providers and media companies are constantly facing the pressure of delivering live events and field event reporting to create the immersive viewing experience for their audiences, while keeping operational costs down. During the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games event, Caton was selected by Momenta as the solution and service partner to deliver high quality, low latency content to live video platforms such as Migu, Tencent Video, Kuai Shou and many more. In order to deliver high-quality live streaming of the games to its viewers in Beijing, Momenta selected the [CatonNet Video Platform (CVP)](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/platform/catonnet-video-platform) with the industry-leading [Caton Transport Protocols (CTP)](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/technology/caton-transport-protocols) to deliver video transmissions that are assured with high quality, performance and reliability. In addition to mitigating the issues that typically arise from bandwidth challenges, the [CVP](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/platform/catonnet-video-platform) and [CTP](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/technology/caton-transport-protocols) solution resulted in lower operating costs while enhancing the user experience of Momenta’s viewers. ![photos-2-jpg](https://www.catontechnology.com/hs-fs/hubfs/photos-2-jpg.jpeg?width=550&name=photos-2-jpg.jpeg) ##### The Requirement 1. Multi-perspective content transmission: multi-terminals connection, including field reporting teams, Main Press Centre (MPC) and mobile vehicle studios for a comprehensive presentation of the Olympic Games in Tokyo. 2. Monitor and control the quality of transmissions: technical expertise in managing the distributed devices and end-to end transmission process for efficiency and stability. 3. High-quality real-time broadcast over IP: provision for a setup that delivers high performance, unparalleled speed and reliable trans-national streams back to Beijing. ##### The Solution Caton and China Unicom jointly designed an integrated solution to securely and reliably transmit live HD video from Tokyo to Beijing: 1. Recognizing the need to supplement the broadcasting teams with agility and efficiency, [Caton mobile encoders (Live Cast Pro)](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/products/mobile-encoder/lcp-300) were deployed in Tokyo to provide real-time HD video transmission through multiple 4G networks. The additional features that come with Caton mobile encoders, such as multiple network bonding and inbuilt [Cydex](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/applications/managed-file-transfer/cydex) client (designed for fast file transfer), provided the broadcasting teams with extra speed in file transfers and network high availability in all transmissions. 2. To enhance the transmission performance from Tokyo to Beijing, all Caton encoders and the SVN platform provided by China Unicom were connected to [CatonNet Video Platform](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/platform/catonnet-video-platform), a global network managed service powered by [Caton Transport Protocols (CTP)](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/technology/caton-transport-protocols). With over 30 algorithms in-built, [CTP](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/technology/caton-transport-protocols) leverages deep learning approaches that work to smooth and mitigate network challenges, coupled with patented dynamic error corrections to recover from data loss. As a result, the quality and performance of the received transmission to Caton decoders situated in Beijing were significantly improved. This specially designed transmission eco-system was secure, stable, and high performing, with active remote monitoring and management of network status by Caton technical support team. 3. To facilitate workflow efficiency, Caton deployed [Cydex](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/applications/managed-file-transfer/cydex), an enterprise-class file transfer management platform. Journalists were able to use [Cydex](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/applications/managed-file-transfer/cydex) to transport large files during the event. Powered by [Caton Transport Protocols (CTP)](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/technology/caton-transport-protocols), [Cydex](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/applications/managed-file-transfer/cydex) breaks through the traditional bottlenecks in sending large files, even in the most challenging networks, without compromising on security. ![case study - olympics](https://www.catontechnology.com/hs-fs/hubfs/case%20study%20-%20olympics.png?width=600&name=case%20study%20-%20olympics.png) After several months of multi-party cooperation, Caton withstood varying degrees of tests in relation to technical support, operation and maintenance, as well as management and service capabilities, to fulfil all of the customer’s requirements. ##### Relevant Caton products: [1.
