DTM has deployed Riedel’s Easy5G private network platform to transmit high-resolution onboard video signals from race cars. The infrastructure provides a scalable, low-latency foundation for live production, enabling new camera angles and data-driven content formats for motorsports broadcasting.
The permanent deployment of private 5G in a major racing series marks a shift from experimental trials to reliable production-grade wireless infrastructure. By achieving high uplink speeds at top racing velocities, DTM and Riedel demonstrate that private cellular networks can replace traditional RF links while reducing physical trackside hardware requirements. This transition enables broadcasters to scale camera counts and data-heavy features without the typical spectrum congestion found in public networks. Watch for whether other Tier 1 racing series adopt similar 5G architectures to support 4K onboard feeds and real-time telemetry integration.
DTM has officially adopted Riedel Easy5G as its primary onboard video transmission system for all 21 race cars. By utilizing a private 5G network developed with TV Skyline, the series achieves 140Mbit/s uplink speeds. This shift marks a transition to reliable, production-grade wireless infrastructure, reducing trackside hardware while enabling immersive camera angles.
The system provides high-resolution onboard video transmission from all 21 race cars using a private 5G network, which reduces the need for extensive trackside hardware while supporting high uplink data rates.
The private 5G infrastructure supports uplink data rates reaching 140Mbit/s.
The infrastructure requires only four to seven antenna locations per track to provide full coverage for the racing field.
The Riedel DIVA+ platform serves as the technical foundation for managing on-site data, intercom, and audio requirements.
