Want the link babysat? Done.
Our operators configure the workflow, manage bonding and bandwidth on site, and coordinate with your receive side or master control. For multi-day or multi-city runs, we plan data consumption ahead so the plan never becomes the story.

// straight answers
Does the rental include data?
Yes. Bonded data is included and sized to your job when we quote.
Who configures the unit?
LiveU does. Units arrive preconfigured, tested, and provisioned to your account, backed by LiveU's 24/7 support.
Do you require a COI?
We accept a certificate of insurance. Coverage is the renter's responsibility; Varto does not offer insurance.
Can you receive the feed for us?
Yes. Rack decode, cloud channels, or LU-LINK into your infrastructure, quoted with the unit.
What happens if the link drops mid-event?
Bonded cellular is the redundancy: each unit bonds multiple modems and networks into one connection, and LiveU's 24/7 support backs the link for the duration of the rental.
// ready when you are
Tell us where you are going live.
We will match the unit, the data, and the decode, and send one quote within one business day.
