Turn SRT & HLS into clean multicast or HLS
Take SRT and HLS sources and deliver clean UDP multicast for distribution, or re-published HLS for your origin — reliably, 24/7.
The problem
Sources arrive over SRT and HLS — your network runs on multicast
Contribution and acquisition increasingly come in over SRT and HLS, but an IPTV distribution network runs on UDP multicast, and an OTT origin wants clean HLS. You need a dependable way to convert sources into both, at scale, without a rack of expensive hardware.
SRT Gateway by CEF receives the SRT or HLS source and outputs exactly what your network needs — UDP multicast/unicast and HLS per program — with failover, live monitoring and a cloud fleet panel so channels stay up around the clock.
Architecture
From acquisition to distribution
Why IPTV / OTT teams choose it
Distribution-ready output, without the hardware bill
Clean, ready-to-distribute output
Standards-friendly UDP multicast and unicast, plus HLS per program, drop straight into your distribution network or CDN origin.
Uptime you can promise
Automatic failover, auto-reconnect and email alerts on signal loss, black screen or pixelation keep every channel healthy.
Scale and manage centrally
Up to 20 streams on a Raspberry Pi and up to 250 on Linux, with every device managed from one cloud fleet panel.
FAQ
IPTV / OTT questions
Can it turn SRT into UDP multicast for distribution?
Yes. It receives SRT in caller mode (a full multiplex or a single program) and outputs UDP multicast and unicast — the transport your IPTV distribution network and set-top boxes expect.
Can it re-publish HLS for an OTT origin?
Yes. Alongside UDP, it produces an HLS output per program, which you can point a player, packager or CDN origin at.
How far does it scale?
Up to 20 streams per Raspberry Pi and up to 250 per Linux server, depending on hardware. Mix devices freely and run them all from one cloud panel, each licensed individually.
