Abstract
A system and method for processing multicast streams is disclosed. A router receives the multicast streams and communicates the streams via communication tunnels to a set of ingestion pipelines. Each communication tunnel can be terminated upon the ingestion pipeline receiving a multicast stream. The set of ingestion pipelines process and deliver the multicast streams across existing IP infrastructure for real time distribution.
