So you need to do a webcast for your event to connect with your outside audience. It doesn’t really matter if your audience that is outside is part of your internal corporation or the public at large that you need to connect with. What is important is that your message and the webcast stream is online when you have told people it will be and when your message must be delivered.

Have you thought of these critical questions though?

What happens if your internet connect goes down that you are using to send your stream out to your distribution platform that your audience is connected to?

What if that construction crew outside your venue cuts through the major fiber line that provides your entire city with internet connections for all?

No one wants to think of the unthinkable, but instead of burying your head in the sand and ignoring these high possibilities happening when delivery of your message is on the line, there is another solution. Think redundancy when it comes to your webcast connection.

Instead of relying on that one feed that everyone always uses, when your message is critical redundancy can very well save you when you need it most.

Redundant connections for webcasting is no longer a luxury but a critical infrastructure component that many who rely on webcasting to connect with their audience find as a necessity.

Redundant connection costs have dropped dramatically and the feasibility of them has become quite cost effective in the last few years. No longer is it limited to corporate giants like FedEx, Microsoft, or others who need to stream daily to their global employee locations, but it’s now something that even small firms with annual meetings are finding essential to maintain the value with their audience.

Redundancy provides the peace of mind of a plan B that is not just standing by, but is ready for immediate responsibility should there be any issues whether minor or major with your primary bandwidth connection.
