The sun goes dark. The stream doesn’t.
We’re taking a Never Down portable kit to the path of totality to broadcast the total solar eclipse live — no fiber, no rack room, no second chances. The same failover stack that keeps our clients’ businesses online is what’s carrying this picture.

A live broadcast with no single point of failure.
Totality lasts about two minutes. There is no “we’ll fix it and try again.” So the uplink behind this stream is built the way we build everything — multiple independent paths, bonded into one connection, failing over automatically.
Multi-carrier cellular
SIMs across different carriers — different companies, different towers — so one saturated or dead network doesn’t end the broadcast.
Satellite uplink
Starlink rides alongside cellular. When one path degrades, traffic shifts in seconds — mid-stream, without a frame of interruption you’d notice.
Battery-powered, field-portable
The whole kit runs off batteries in the field. It’s the same hardware family that kept EDC Las Vegas online for 30,000 daily users.
If it can hold a live picture of the eclipse from the middle of nowhere, it can hold your point of sale through a Florida storm.
