Techex’s tx edge is an advanced transport gateway solution providing secure transport, protection and monitoring for live video. Crafted in-house by Techex's experienced development team in response to the needs of the most demanding clients including major broadcasters and telecommunication companies, it offers a comprehensive array of protocol options for both content ingest and egress, along with numerous possibilities for traffic manipulation within the IP domain. Engineered with security as a paramount concern, tx edge establishes crucial 'trust boundary' isolation between networks, while safeguarding against traffic over-rates through advanced traffic policing mechanisms.

Techex's collaboration with Zixi enables advanced encoding and delivery of content with ultra-low latency across any IP network, including unmanaged Internet connections. This makes it imperative for critical applications like esports, live news coverage, and high-profile entertainment events.
