TFC is REdefining the broadcast landscape

TFC is a scalable unified technology platform that uses software to make using IP 2110 infrastructure in a broadcast environment easy and intuitive.

TFC Makes IP INfrastructure Easy & Intuitive

Traditional, hardware based, broadcast systems require specialized electronics engineering knowledge to build, operate, and properly maintain. NEP engineers developed TFC to solve the issues of scaling and network control. It enabled NEP to automate complex tasks and standardize the workflows used by engineers. 

The TFC platform is comprised of several core components which can be scaled to meet your production's specific needs, including Broadcast Control, Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Monitoring & Alarming, and Support & Maintenance.

TFC Broadcast Control is the glue that brings vendor hardware and software together into a single control platform; enabling clients to automate complex tasks and standardize workflows.

  • Intuitive Design - Broadcast Control is easy to use and allows tasks to be performed without extensive training.
  • Technology Agnostic - TFC enables clients to have the flexiblity to build a solution that best fits their needs.
  • Network Security - TFC extends security to all devices on the network; increasing network integrity & minimizing downtime.

TFC SDN was developed specifically for the unique requirements of media networks. The SDN service lives inside the TFC Broadcast Control system and doesn’t require any additional configuration.

  • Efficient / Lean Networks - TFC SDN helps facilities of all sizes to orchestrate the network and optimize bandwidth usage.
  • Redundancy - Purple network maximizes resilience, optimizes bandwidth, and reduces latency risks in media transport, making it particularly valuable for live events, cloud-based production, and mission-critical broadcast applications.
  • Multiple Service Providers – TFC SDN is designed to be agnostic and works well with different providers and / or systems (Cisco, Arista) with signals for distribution / management.

Continuous monitoring and alarming of devices and real-time visibility into network uptime, device outages, hardware availability, latency, and other essential metrics.

  • Maximizing Uptime - Monitoring ensures facilities can deliver high-quality content reliably & efficiently.
  • Proactive Alerting - Combined with 24/7 support from NEP, proactive alerting helps prevent service disruptions before they happen.
  • Global Experience - Monitoring maintains the health of complex networks, which often span multiple locations and consist of diverse devices / applications.

TFC deployments are supported by a comprehensive 24/7/365 Support & Maintenance program. Our experts are strategically based around the world to guarantee the reliability and performance of the platform.

  • Rapid Response Times - With a dedicated support desk and live troubleshooting, the average remote support response time is less than 10 minutes.
  • KPI Reporting - KPI reporting provides clear visibility into your broadcast operations, helping to optimize performance, reduce downtime, and ensure seamless delivery.
