Case Study: ChyronHego achieves clean, cable-free live broadcasts with Digi International's AnywhereUSB

ChyronHego keeps live golf broadcasts clean with Digi AnywhereUSB, eliminating dedicated USB cabling over miles of course

ChyronHego, a global leader in broadcast graphics for live television and sports, faced a challenge during major live events like golf tournaments. Their powerful telestrator application required USB connectivity between remote touchscreens and central graphics servers spread across large venues. With millions of viewers watching, any latency or network glitches were unacceptable, and running dedicated USB cabling over long distances was costly and impractical. This led them to seek a solution from Digi International.

Digi International provided its AnywhereUSB product, a network-attached USB hub that connects devices over an existing LAN as if they were directly attached to the computer. The solution worked flawlessly, eliminating latency concerns and ensuring reliable, glitch-free broadcasts. This saved the customer money by removing the need for dedicated cabling and simplified their deployments for short-term events, making their use of remote touchscreens possible.
