Say hello to the future of content delivery
What Is Blockcast?
A Better, Less Expensive Way to Deliver Internet Content
Blockcast is a next-gen, open CDN which aggregates capacity from tens of thousands of nodes around the world. These nodes exist well beyond the typical, centralized CDN architectures. This open approach to caching enables content providers, whether streaming operators or gaming companies, to reach more users, even in remote areas, and deliver a higher Quality of Experience. When combined with our delivery partners, such as satellite operators, cellular broadcasters, ATSC 3.0 stations, or AMT relays, our customers can leverage the unique multicast capabilities of our network to deliver content at a fraction of the price.

Broadcasters
Go From Signal Broadcasting to Internet Content Delivery. Generate New Revenue.
Whether you are an ATSC 3-enabled television station, a cellular carrier with broadcast capabilities,a satellite operator, or own an AMT relay on a multicast native network, a whole new opportunity is opening up for you: Datacasting. You can use that traditional signal-broadcasting capabilities to deliver internet content. But streaming content through technologies typically used for signal broadcast requires more than just the infrastructure. Broadcasters need to ensure content is routed correctly and deliver with reliability to signal loss to maintain integrity and a high-quality experience for streaming content. Additionally, they need to form relationships with content owners to monetize their infrastructure. By working with Blockcast, broadcasters can contribute their datachannel capacity to the Blockcast Network and leverage investment in existing infrastructure to generate new revenue.

CDNs and ISPs
Extend Your Capacity Without Spending. Reach New Geographies And Generate More Revenue.
For CDNs, hard-to-reach users, like in rural areas, can make it challenging to ensure a high QoE. It may not make economic sense to put PoPs or caches in Tier 3 operator networks. In densely populated areas, last mile wireless networks can become congested during popular events leading to degraded service quality. For any network operator, connecting with the Blockcast Network can expand their capacity, provide for off-net delivery, and even ensure they can deliver to hard-to-reach users. By partnering with Blockcast, CDNs and ISPs and will leverage the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of one-to-many delivery while generating new revenue streams.
