# Live Sports Delivery in the MoQ Era

##### **How Caton enabled ultra-reliable cross-border MLB transmission to Taiwan and why this matters for next-generation real-time media architectures**

##### **The Challenge**

Delivering live sports across continents is one of the most demanding workflows in media.

For Taiwan’s broadcasters and rights holders, distributing seasonal MLB games from New York required a transport layer capable of sustaining **daily, high-value live broadcasts under strict performance expectations**.

This was not a one-off event. The operation had to support:

- Up to **9 concurrent live games per day**
- **20 Mbps per stream** at broadcast quality
- Continuous delivery from **New York to three TV networks in Taiwan**

The requirement was clear: maintain consistent quality, minimise operational complexity, and ensure stable performance across long-haul international networks.

In live sports, there is no margin for error. Any disruption is immediately visible, impacting viewer experience, broadcaster confidence, and operational continuity.

##### **The Deployment**

Caton enabled the delivery of Major League Baseball games from a broadcast centre in New York to three broadcasters in Taiwan — ELEVEN SPORTS Taiwan, Chinese Television System (CTS), and ELTA — collectively reaching more than 75% of the country’s baseball audience.

This engagement followed earlier successful delivery of NBA and NPB content for ELEVEN SPORTS Taiwan, reinforcing operational trust and leading to continued collaboration.

The deployment was powered by **<https://www.catontechnology.com/en/solutions/media-xstream>[Caton Media XStream](https://www.catontechnology.com/en/solutions/media-xstream), **the enhanced MoQ platform, enabling:

- Reliable IP-based transport across international networks
- Simultaneous delivery of multiple high-bitrate live feeds
- Stable performance under real-world network conditions

While broadcasters manage downstream distribution to viewers, the upstream transport layer plays a critical role, ensuring that live source feeds arrive **consistently, reliably, and with minimal delay**.

This is precisely the layer where traditional approaches often struggle, and where new architectural models are now emerging.

![Case Study - Live Sports MoQ](https://www.catontechnology.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Case%20Study/MoQ%20-%20MLB/Case%20Study%20-%20Live%20Sports%20MoQ.png?width=1920&height=1080&name=Case%20Study%20-%20Live%20Sports%20MoQ.png)

##### **The Outcome**

The MLB deployment delivered consistent, production-grade performance:

- **>99.9999% reliability** across daily live operations
- Support for **up to 9 concurrent live game feeds**
- Stable delivery of **20 Mbps broadcast-quality streams**
- Reliable cross-border transmission from **New York to Taiwan**
- Simplified operations across multiple broadcasters

Customer feedback reflects the operational impact:

“We now have a lot of experience with Caton’s solution, and we know it to be very stable, very low latency, and very clean.” — Eric Teng, Managing Director, ELEVEN SPORTS Taiwan.

 

##### **Why this matters in the MoQ era**

The industry is shifting toward architectures designed for real-time, object-based media delivery, with Media over QUIC (MoQ) gaining increasing attention.

However, before such models can be widely adopted, the underlying requirements must already be proven in production.

This deployment highlights those requirements:

- **Ultra-reliable transport for premium live content**
- **Handling of multiple concurrent streams**
- **Stable long-haul international delivery**
- **Consistent low-latency performance under daily operations**

These are not theoretical challenges; they are real-world constraints that define modern media workflows.

As the industry moves toward next-generation real-time media architectures, deployments like this provide clear evidence of what the market will increasingly require: reliable, low-latency, production-grade transport at operational scale.
