The USTA has transitioned to a full ST-2110 IP infrastructure for the US Open, partnering with HBS and NEP Group to manage host broadcast operations. The new setup utilizes Lawo .edge gateways and NEP fly-packs to deliver 1080p HDR coverage across all courts, replacing previous truck-based production workflows.
The shift to a full IP-based host broadcast model allows the USTA to reclaim technical control from domestic partners like ESPN, mirroring the operational strategies of Wimbledon and the Australian Open. By utilizing ST-2110 and Lawo gateways, the production team can now provide bespoke, high-dynamic-range feeds to international rights holders without the physical constraints of baseband cabling or router port limits. This transition signals a broader industry move toward software-defined broadcast centers that can scale for massive multi-court events. Watch for whether this centralized IP core reduces long-term overhead as the USTA completes its multi-year stadium renovation project through 2027.
