When World Athletics selected Glasgow as the host city for the World Athletics Indoor Championships, they turned to RockIT to meet the same high standards achieved at their other premier events worldwide. With an extensive history of successful partnerships with World Athletics on global stages, RockIT was well-prepared to ensure that the Glasgow event ran seamlessly.
The timeline for the project was tight, requiring a rapid deployment of a full-service network infrastructure that could support critical functions such as timing, results, and IPTV. Despite these time constraints, RockIT’s team worked efficiently to design, implement, and optimise an event-ready network that upheld the rigorous standards of World Athletics.
To ensure precision, RockIT deployed a robust, redundant network infrastructure tailored to the exacting requirements of timing and results delivery. This network provided real-time data feeds and reliable support for competition scoring systems, guaranteeing accurate and timely display of results for athletes, officials, and spectators alike.
For comprehensive event coverage, RockIT delivered a customised IPTV solution that enabled live, high-quality video streaming across the venue. The IPTV network was carefully designed to accommodate high bandwidth demands and provide smooth, uninterrupted broadcasts to screens throughout the event space.
Given the event’s global significance, RockIT implemented a fully redundant network design, with backup paths and systems to eliminate any risk of downtime. This setup ensured that every critical area, from timing to media and technical operations, had reliable, high-speed connectivity at all times.
By deploying a fully integrated, turnkey solution in record time, RockIT enabled World Athletics to deliver a smooth and successful championship experience in Glasgow. Once again, RockIT’s technical expertise and commitment to excellence ensured that the World Athletics Indoor Championships met the prestigious standards expected at global athletic events.
