The challenge was to bring them into a unified workflow instead of managing separate point-to-point signal paths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team also required a flexible infrastructure that could simplify deployment and scale with future production needs. For the production team, the priorities were clear:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simplify deployment and reduce cabling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Centralize multi-source production workflows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distribute signals across multiple production systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maintain flexible routing and scalability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve operational visibility and control<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Solution: Bringing Multiple Production Sources into a Unified Workflow<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The production team deployed a network-based workflow built around Kiloview <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiloview.com\/en\/products\/ndi\/n60\/\" title=\"\">N60 encoders<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiloview.com\/en\/products\/ndi\/n50\/\" title=\"\">N50 encoders<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiloview.com\/en\/products\/ndi-sys\/connection-series\/avx-media-hub\/\" title=\"\">AVX 24-4 Media HUB<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The workflow brought together gameplay feeds, commentator content, wireless camera coverage, replay systems, graphics, and venue display outputs within a single production environment. Gameplay and HDMI-based sources were converted into NDI streams through Kiloview N60 units, while NDI PTZ cameras and wireless video feeds were integrated directly into the network. In this way, baseband sources, native NDI cameras, and wireless coverage could all become part of the same NDI production workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AVX24-4 Media HUB, Kiloview\u2019s next-generation IP and media management platform. Using the AVX 24-4 Media HUB as the centralized NDI signal hub, all sources were made available to the production team for live switching, monitoring, routing, and content management. AVX 24-4 Media HUB provided centralized signal management, real-time status visibility, and flexible signal routing, allowing operators to view and manage signal availab&nbsp;ility&nbsp;across&nbsp;the&nbsp;production&nbsp;network.&nbsp;Instead&nbsp;of&nbsp;building&nbsp;separate&nbsp;signal&nbsp;paths&nbsp;for&nbsp;each&nbsp;production&nbsp;system,&nbsp;the&nbsp;team&nbsp;could&nbsp;work&nbsp;from&nbsp;a&nbsp;shared&nbsp;NDI&nbsp;signal&nbsp;pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IFC-PR-AVX24-4.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Replay content from 3Play and graphics generated in vMix were incorporated into the same workflow, enabling operators to manage live gameplay, replays, and graphics from a unified production environment. The live switching system could access gameplay feeds, commentator sources, wireless camera coverage, replay elements, and graphics content through the same network-based workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once produced, the final program feed was delivered simultaneously to both on-site and online audiences. Kiloview N60 decoders distributed live video to venue LED screens and commentator displays, while a Kiloview N50 encoder generated streaming outputs for online platforms. With support for multiple protocols such as NDI, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, HLS, and TS-UDP, the N50 helped adapt the final program output to different platform and system requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By bringing acquisition, production, replay, graphics, streaming, monitoring, and display distribution into a single network-based workflow, the production team was able to reduce infrastructure complexity while maintaining the flexibility required for a fast-paced esports event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"411\" src=\"https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-1024x411.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-1024x411.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-768x308.jpg 768w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-1536x617.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/enstatic.kiloview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/case-study-chendu-topology-2048x822.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Less Infrastructure, More Production Agility<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest benefit was not simply moving signals over IP\u2014it was creating a more efficient production workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By reducing cabling and simplifying signal distribution, the team streamlined deployment while gaining greater flexibility across the production environment.
