Cisco Partners With New England Patriots To Deliver 4K Content

This morning, Cisco announced it has become the official technology partner of the New England Patriots and Gillette Stadium. This partnership, it said, “will improve video delivery of content both in-stadium and via broadcast, as well as provide network connectivity and security throughout the venue.

Cisco’s IP Fabric for Media solution now plays a key role in providing the largest outdoor high-definition video board in the country, screens throughout the concourse, and broadcasters delivering the game to fans around the world with secure and efficient delivery of 4K content. This technology has been used to power the broadcast of recent events such as the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023.

Cisco Secure Firewalls and Cisco Secure Malware Analytics are also being deployed throughout the venue to help monitor, detect, and stop threats in order to protect the stadium, staff, players, and guests from advanced cyber-attacks.
