NBA - HSAN (High Speed Arena Network)

Eddie

The NBA HSAN is the High Speed Arena Network that provides linear feeds from all 30 NBA arenas across the league. Through our HSAN connectivity, we can receive up to 40 simultaneous feeds and send 10 feeds back to the NBA.

HSAN Inbound Feeds = 40

HSAN Outbound Feeds = 10

Audio Configuration on HSAN records, after a remap in the UDX.

  • CH 1 & 2 – Nats
  • CH 7 & 8 – Broadcast Announcers (Stereo)
  • CH 9 & 10 – Truck Comms
  • CH 11 & 12 – Radio Announcers (Home and Away)

The process to request feeds in Culver from HSAN is as follows:

  • Feeds are all tracked in a shared Google Document that PVLS fills out each week. The grid is locked on Fridays at 10am PT, so any changes after 10am PT need to be communicated directly to the NBA HSANB team. This grid contains a daily request for feeds we want to receive and include the game schedule, which feeds we are looking for and what RX path these will be delivered to. That tracking document can be accessed at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14crCt3PpWQ4ifsmiKsAS9McC8srQDp819jGz206plaw/edit?usp=sharing
  • The NBA accesses this sheet and will make the needed routes each day. 
  • We are ingesting all feeds in Telestream and all feeds are available on the router so EVS and other PVLS entities can access them.
  • A tab on the HSAN Google Doc also contains a comprehensive list of all feeds available at each arena.
  • The contact information for NBA HSAN is as follows
