Case Study: University of Texas at Austin modernizes sports production with Diversified

University of Texas (UT) at Austin builds 5 IP-based control rooms with Diversified

The University of Texas at Austin faced a challenge as it prepared to join the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Its previous model of outsourcing sports broadcast production no longer met the high media standards of the new conference or fan expectations. To bring production in-house and retire the Longhorn Network, UT partnered with Diversified to build a new, cutting-edge production hub.

Diversified implemented a centralized, fully IP-based infrastructure for UT Austin, featuring five ST-2110 networked control rooms capable of supporting multiple athletic venues. This solution from Diversified allowed the university to reduce long-term costs, maintain full creative control, and meet SEC/ESPN broadcast standards. It also provided students with hands-on production experience, transforming the facility into a premier recruitment tool.
