01 April 2025

Neos Networks has fortified its long-term collaboration with BMC TV to ensure the seamless delivery of live event broadcasts throughout the UK.

With 18 years of experience, BMC TV has established a reputation for high-quality media connectivity, servicing major sporting and entertainment events such as the FIFA World Cup, Commonwealth Games, and Wimbledon Tennis Championships.

At the heart of BMC TV’s services lies its proprietary London Media Exchange (LMX) platform, which provides a comprehensive live contribution network designed to securely and efficiently transport high-value media content from venues to broadcasters. By leveraging Neos Networks’ extensive nationwide fibre infrastructure, BMC TV can expand its LMX Live and LMX Connect services beyond London, enhancing scalability and resilience to reach key venues across the UK.

Neos Networks offers diverse fibre routes alongside high-performance optical links at 10Gbps and 100Gbps, as well as dedicated low-latency circuits. This robust infrastructure enables BMC TV to deliver uncompressed, high-quality video services to prominent broadcasters, including the BBC, ITV, and leading sports production companies.

“Our ongoing collaboration with Neos Networks is a critical component of BMC TV’s growth strategy. Live broadcasting presents unique challenges — there is no margin for delay or failure. Neos Networks’ infrastructure provides the reliability, flexibility, and scale we need to ensure that every live event is delivered flawlessly. Their account management team removes the complexity of network procurement, enabling us to focus on expanding our services and supporting the next generation of live content delivery,” said Lee Russell, Operations Director at BMC TV.

Neos Networks’ expertise in high-capacity connectivity solutions has empowered BMC TV to scale its live broadcast network efficiently, supporting high-profile contracts in UK horse racing, Super League Basketball, and major entertainment productions. This strategic partnership ensures that customers receive top-tier service through fully managed network solutions tailored to their specific needs.
