Core offering

United Teleports provides managed broadcast and broadband distribution services combining teleport infrastructure, channel origination and playout, multi-path distribution, headend outsourcing, and OTT/FAST delivery for broadcasters, cable operators, media companies, and satellite operators. The company operates three interconnected teleports and data centers in Miami, Port St. Lucie, and Thomaston, supporting 2,000+ channels and 750+ networks across cable, IPTV, direct-to-home, OTT streaming, and terrestrial television platforms with 24/7 NOC monitoring.

Product overview

United Teleports operates as a managed video platform combining six core service modules: Teleport Infrastructure Services, Playout Services, Channel Distribution, Headend Outsourcing, Streaming & OTT Solutions, and FAST Channel Platform (DNET). The services work as an integrated delivery chain where content origination and playout connect to channel distribution, which feeds into headend outsourcing and streaming/FAST delivery, all supported by teleport infrastructure and 24/7 NOC operations across three facilities in Miami, Port St. Lucie, and Thomaston. The platform replaces fragmented vendor relationships with one operating partner managing the full content delivery workflow from origination through distribution to end platforms.
