Case Study: Warner Bros. Discovery achieves resilient live Olympic coverage with Vislink LiveLink 5G

Warner Bros. Discovery delivers Winter Olympics coverage with 40 Vislink LiveLink units

Warner Bros. Discovery required a scalable and resilient live broadcast solution to cover the geographically dispersed and challenging terrain of the 2026 Winter Olympics. Their challenge was to maintain stable, broadcast-grade live feeds across multiple venues and platforms despite high network congestion and the need for full redundancy. Vislink provided its LiveLink 5G bonded cellular technology to address this.

The solution implemented by Vislink involved deploying 40 LiveLink bonded cellular units across the venues, which aggregated multiple cellular connections into a single, resilient data stream. This system supported continuous multi-hour live transmissions daily without loss of on-air feeds, ensuring uninterrupted coverage for linear and OTT platforms. The results included a reliable, fully redundant workflow with stable performance in high-demand environments, successfully meeting Warner Bros. Discovery's critical objective for the Games.
