UDP & SRT

Reliable streaming protocols for low latency applications

UDP is a lightweight transport protocol that sends video with very low delay — ideal for live signals where every millisecond counts. SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) builds on that speed and adds reliability: the protocol recovers packet loss and jitter, even over unpredictable connections such as the public internet.

That makes UDP and SRT the standard protocols for contribution: transporting live video from a source location to a headend, or between locations. SRT also provides encryption for the transport.

For distribution to end users, the signals are typically converted in the headend to protocols such as HLS or multicast — combining low latency at the source with flexible delivery to the viewer.
