Lumen Technologies highlighted fiber-first, hybrid-ready Vyvx solution at NAB Show to deliver sports, news and live events as satellite spectrum options are expected to decrease. Federally driven changes are expected to reduce satellite capacity as early as 2027. At the National Association of Broadcasters Show, Lumen Technologies will showcase its Vyvx Hybrid Distribution offering, designed to support modernization and operational continuity for live sports, news and major events as broadcasters navigate change.
Lumen Vyvx Broadcast Solutions delivers seamless secure, reliable, low-latency content transport and video broadcast solutions for enterprise and media companies. The Vyvx Hybrid Distribution offering is a fiber-first foundation layer. Rather than requiring companies to make a choice between satellite and IP alternatives, it supports a hybrid approach that offers satellite, fiber and IP-based delivery options as parallel paths to help reduce risk and complexity without sacrificing operational certainty.
It?s engineered for broadcasters that want a clear path forward without a disruptive, all-or-nothing change. Lumen differentiates its Vyvx Hybrid Distribution offering with a combination of infrastructure scale and operational expertise that is difficult to replicate. Lumen owns and operates the underlying fiber network, along with satellite teleport facilities, enabling end-to-end control of routing, redundancy and quality.
Vyvx?s heritage in live broadcast operations adds an additional layer of assurance. Bringing decades of operational experience to the industry, Vyvx is on net with broadcasters, production facilities and venues, helping manage transport and delivery. Vyvx will be at the 2026 NAB Show April 18-22 in Las Vegas, hosting technology demonstrations and engaging expert panels.
