Case Study: Network Ten achieves fast, secure intercontinental promo delivery with Aspera faspex On Demand

Powering transfers from the South African jungle to Sydney, Australia for hit show

Network Ten, an Australian commercial broadcaster, faced a tight deadline and a technical challenge while producing the Australian edition of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!—daily transfer of large promo video packages from a remote South African jungle to editors in Sydney over poor network infrastructure, with security and a short-term project window preventing costly hardware upgrades.

They deployed Aspera faspex On Demand, a cloud‑based, subscription solution using FASP® technology to fully utilize available bandwidth (maintaining ~25 Mbps vs FTP’s <2 Mbps). The result: reliable, secure transfers of 5–10 files per day (20–60 GB each), faster promo turnaround, easy scalability for the three-month shoot, and simple reuse of the environment for future seasons.
