Frequently Asked Questions
A Sportzcast device connects to your existing venue scoreboard system and distributes your scoreboard data automatically and simultaneously in real-time to the destination of your choice. Typical destinations include: Broadcast graphic overlays, web displays, videoboards, NCAA LiveStats, or anywhere that could benefit from a real-time data feed from your scoreboard.
While there are numerous workflow scenarios that one can encounter, the most common is to have your Sportzcast device connected to the scoreboard controller and the other end connected to an active ethernet port. The data is then sent over either the local subnet or through our cloud server and sent to a computer of your choice connected to a separate active ethernet port. The data is sent over usually in an XML file but can be sent over in JSON as well.
A ScoreLink is a small device created by Sportzcast which connects to your existing scoreboard system and enables network distribution automatically of your data in real-time for integration uses such as broadcast graphic overlays or NCAA LiveStats.

The price for each plan will vary depending on which device you choose, for price information please call 321-888-3800 or email [email protected]
