Everything you need to know about Secure Reliable Transport (SRT Gateway)

Haivision SRT Gateway, which stands for Secure Reliable Transport, is designed to carry live video streams over the internet in the most secure way possible. This open-source video streaming protocol enables high-quality video delivery, even in unpredictable network conditions.

The Gateway is a reliable and secure tool for live streaming across a wide range of IP networks. It acts as a bridge by sending content to one or several destinations. Although the broadcast market benefits from it when it comes to production and distribution, it can be applied to many industries.

Live streaming

Consumption of streamed material is at an all-time high, and growing. Daily activities such as watching a live interview or a concert in real-time from any device are only possible through live video streaming. This occurs when the streamed material is sent as it’s happening. This has largely changed the way of consuming information such as TV broadcasting, video games, and social media channels, to name a few. 

How does SRT work? 

Haivision developed SRT as a tool to help improve workflows within the broadcast industry by helping broadcasters to transport footage across unpredictable networks without sacrificing the quality of the image. It’s a flexible and scalable solution for the secure routing of live video streams.

SRT works in real-time, optimising your content to adapt efficiently to specific networks and making it possible to stream media seamlessly in situations such as remote contribution, backhaul, return feeds, bi-directional interviews, and content distribution for international syndication.

Secure Reliable Transport software is a game-changer tool thanks to its interoperability. It ensures flexibility to support different source and destination points over all types of IP networks.
