EnGo and GateWay ensure seamless two-way connectivity between Argentina and Kenya for a three-day constitutional assembly.
Dejero Smart Blending Technology has played a crucial role in facilitating a three-day virtual blockchain institution assembly, seamlessly connecting 500 delegates in Argentina with 50 in Kenya. The event enabled real-time negotiations and the signing of a new constitution through uninterrupted connectivity.
Hybrid event broadcast specialists, Stream7, managed live streaming operations for First Event, a corporate events company. To ensure flawless 1080p video quality and seamless two-way communication, Stream7 relied on Dejero’s solutions, which provided a stable connection between both locations via Zoom.
Darren Wain, managing director at Stream7, said: “Both locations posed network challenges, including the risk of power outages and unstable network infrastructure. We relied entirely on the Dejero EnGo 265 with GateWay Mode for internet connectivity in Kenya, and the GateWay 211 provided crucial internet back-up in Argentina which is notorious for rolling black-outs.”
Silicon Savvy supplied four international roaming SIMs for a Dejero EnGo 265 mobile video transmitter in Kenya, while Watchapp provided a Dejero GateWay 211 network aggregation device via Hi-Chat in Argentina to ensure a reliable backup connection.
Wain explained: “There is no other connectivity solution in the market that can match the reliability of the Dejero units. Its high-gain antennas and intelligent network blending– far beyond simple cellular bonding–meant we were able to deliver a first-class service as the streaming partner for this event. Dejero also enabled us to expand from one planned stream to three live 4K streams for additional sponsors.”
Powered by Dejero Smart Blending Technology, the GateWay and EnGo solutions dynamically combine multiple wired and wireless connections—including 3G/4G/5G, Wi-Fi, satellite (LEO, NEO, and GEO) and broadband—offering unmatched reliability, wider coverage, and increased bandwidth for live streaming.
These plug-and-play devices made for easy remote set-up and their intuitive interfaces meant that even inexperienced users were confident to operate them: “We had just seven days to organize streaming at the Kenyan location, but with the fantastic support provided by Dejero and their partners, along with the operational simplicity of the solutions, it was a stress-free experience,” added Wain. “The fact that Dejero can also blend Starlink satellite networks into the mix could be a game changer for us in future challenging network environments.”
With a dedicated team of nine in Argentina and three in Kenya, Stream7 successfully powered the virtual assembly, ensuring high-quality internet connectivity for live video streaming and real-time communication among global delegates.
