What is SenzaCaster®?
Setting The New Standard For Broadcasting.
Forget about bulky, heavy, heat-generating gear with its noisy fans, and rack-mounted computers. Say goodbye to specially installed VLAN, or dedicated and expensive IP data lines. You'll never have to worry about static IP addresses, knobs, buttons, or dials again.
SenzaCaster® is the first true plug-and-play solution for transmitting high quality video signals across the internet. Open the box, connect the power cable, your HD-SDI with embedded audio, and simply plug into any RJ-45 internet connection. That's it!
With our revolutionary DASHBOARD, the entire line of SenzaCaster® products can be remotely managed from anywhere in the world. You no longer need to hire an engineer for your remote transmissions. From now on all you will need is a packing slip for shipping.

For a fraction of the cost, you can bring your remote guest into your local venue with full two-way interactivity.
Best Practices
SenzaCaster® delivers studio-quality video over unmanaged IP networks. To ensure seamless integration into your existing IP infrastructure, we offer these simple recommendations:
Avoid negotiating for a static IP address and fixed bandwidth. SenzaCaster® functions with standard Public IP Networks. Such dedicated resources are now irrelevant and a waste of both effort and money.
Don't overbuy. The bandwidth required is readily available from a standard IP connection. For high definition video transmission the requirement is 7-10 mbps.
Obtain Internet access via an industry standard RJ-45 connection. Special gear is not required.
