Video Streaming Definitions: Broadcast Backhaul
Peter Maag, CMO of Haivision, breaks down the use cases of backhaul in broadcast applications in this video.
Backhaul – in broadcast – refers to the transport of raw video content from a source (a remote vehicle or camera site) to the broadcast stations where production, packaging, and redistribution may occur. Wireless backhaul is the use of wireless communications systems to get data from an end user to a node in a major network such as the Internet or the proprietary network of a large business, academic institution or government agency. In other words, it is the intermediate wireless communication infrastructure that connects smaller networks with a primary network.
