Telstra Broadcast Services recognised at Asia-Pacific Broadcasting+ Awards 2025
Its IDN 2.0, launched in September 2024, is transforming live video transport.
Honoured in the Internet Delivery Network – Australia category at the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting+ Awards 2025, this award celebrates the launch of Telstra’s next-generation Internet Delivery Network (IDN 2.0).
Telstra IDN 2.0 is a next-generation, cloud-based platform that enables the secure and reliable transport of live video content across diverse networks—including internet, fibre, and satellite. Built to maximise content value and revenue opportunities through rapid deployment with minimal expense, IDN 2.0 allows customers to confidently manage their feeds from its global operations centres whilst addressing unpredictable latency, jitter, dropped packet, and network congestion.
At the heart of the innovation is an industry-first multi-protocol global router, which simplifies routing and monitoring of live feeds across any protocol or location. The platform’s globally distributed controller also allows customers to manage their own feeds with confidence, whilst Telstra’s 24/7 global operations centres provide real-time support and assurance. This combination of customer control and managed service is the first of its kind in the market.
Telstra IDN 2.0 also delivers enhanced resiliency through features like active multipathing, hitless failover, and encrypted connections. Its intuitive interface and flexible edge device support make it easy to deploy and scale, helping broadcasters reduce complexity, lower costs, and accelerate time to market.
With a proven track record supporting major sports leagues and broadcasters worldwide, Telstra Broadcast Services (TBS) continues to lead the industry in delivering innovative, reliable, and scalable media solutions for broadcasters and media companies around the world. IDN 2.0 represents a major leap forward in how its broadcast customers can deliver high-value content globally.
The Asia-Pacific Broadcasting+ Awards celebrate excellence in broadcasting and media technology across the Asia-Pacific region. TBS’s win is a testament to their commitment to innovation and highlights its role in shaping the future of live content delivery.
