Case Study: Broadmedia achieves accelerated, scalable DCP delivery to 500+ screens with Signiant Managers+Agents

Broadmedia Deploys Signiant for Digital Cinema Package Delivery Service in Japan

Broadmedia, Japan's leading content distributor, needed to deliver very large Digital Cinema Packages (average >250 GB) to hundreds of theaters nationwide over broadband. Simultaneous sends caused distributor-side congestion and long delays — a single DCP over a 50 Mbps link could take ~12 hours, and unmanaged distribution to many cinemas risked stretching delivery timelines from overnight to months.

Broadmedia deployed Signiant Managers+Agents via reseller Photron to accelerate and centrally manage automated transfers, allocate bandwidth, and prioritize deliveries. The solution has already connected 80 cinemas with plans for 500+ screens, delivering predictable, faster distribution, reduced network congestion, and a scalable platform for large‑scale DCP rollout.
