About RAC Arena Perth
RAC Arena (formerly Perth Arena) is Western Australia's premier entertainment and sporting venue, located in the heart of Perth's central business district. With a capacity of up to 15,000 spectators and featuring iconic neo-futuristic geometric architecture with a retractable roof, the arena is the home court of the ten-time NBL champion Perth Wildcats, the principal venue for the international United Cup tennis tournament, and the host for global touring icons such as Ed Sheeran, Elton John, Prince, The Eagles, and Kendrick Lamar. The venue hosts over 100 major events annually, frequently transforming between vastly different operational configurations multiple times in a single week.
What RAC Arena Perth Needs From an IPTV & Signage Partner
Mission-critical operational requirements specific to sports venues and arenas
Whole-Bowl Synchronized Content Delivery
Distributing low-latency live camera feeds, sponsor takeovers, and graphics to center-hung scoreboards, 360° perimeter ribbon boards, vomitory displays, and outdoor entrance screens in microsecond lockstep.
Rapid Multi-Event Configuration
Turning around an arena from an international tennis court on Friday afternoon to a packed basketball arena on Saturday evening to a touring rock concert on Monday morning requires instantaneous preset switching of all display profiles, channel lineups, and sponsor branding.
Digital Menu Boards & POS Catering Integration
Concession stands requiring dynamic digital menu boards that integrate with stadium POS systems to adjust prices, display sold-out notices, and trigger promotional meal deals during halftime.
Crowd Flow & Gate Ticketing Signage
High-visibility signage at turnstiles, escalators, and concourse intersections integrated with ticketing sensors to manage crowd flow and provide emergency announcements.
Bespoke Corporate Hospitality Suite Control
Private VIP suites where corporate sponsors can customize their in-room television viewing, review match replays, and access venue event information via dedicated touch interfaces.

The Challenge
StreamVue was engaged in 2011 during the arena's construction phase. Venue management required a unified IPTV and digital signage backbone capable of handling the extreme diversity of event types held at the venue. The system had to support rapid weekly reconfigurations, eliminate third-party hardware silos, connect directly to broadcast feeds for live replays, and integrate seamlessly with catering, CRM, and ticketing services via open APIs.
The StreamVue Solution & Architecture
StreamVue engineered an enterprise IP fabric utilizing dedicated appliance servers connected directly to stadium broadcast cameras and external broadcast OB vans. StreamVue's Conductor scheduling engine manages channel routing across 300+ commercial displays, multi-screen video walls, and arena ribbon boards with one-click event profile switching. StreamVue built an open API integration with the venue's point-of-sale catering system, automating dynamic digital menu board updates across concourses. In the corporate suites, StreamVue deployed interactive endpoints allowing guests to switch between court cameras, free-to-air television, and instant replay channels.
