What is a Network Operations Center?
A Network Operations Center (NOC) is a centralized hub that manages and monitors every aspect of production, from live video creation to distribution. It is also the hub of producing, receiving, and content delivery, from media asset management and video playout facilities to video and audio control rooms, studios, editing, and graphic facilities.
