Proximus ViCoNG
Case Study: Fast and Furious ST2110
Migration to Country-Wide ST2110 IP in 90 Days
The Proximus ViCoNG project in Belgium has delivered a robust setup based on permanent fiber-optic network connections among 18 sporting arenas and the production hub in Brussels, the video assistant referee HQ in Tubize and all rights holders.
Thanks to the excellent collaboration of several Proximus divisions (Network, Enterprise and Customers, Customer Operations, Infrastructure & Facilities Management, Procurement and PmH), EMG and Lawo, the country-wide setup was delivered in just over 90 days. It went live in mid-July 2021 for the first test matches of the new soccer season and has been humming along ever since.
It was also used at the Tomorrowland 2022 EDM festival.
On 4 November 2022, the ViCoNG project received international recognition with the AV Award for “Broadcast and Media Project of the Year” 2022.
The setup works so reliably that it will be used for a variety of events — not just sports.
