Obviously none of this is official, because it hasn't been announced yet. We were told by an inside source that they are going with a company called Fulcrum media who does Ultimate Frisbee broadcasts. We don't know many of the details other than that, but I can take some guesses as to how it would be done if I were in their shoes.
My guesses:
I heard they were going to run fiber. Fiber is expensive. I would guess that they are going to just run fiber around the lake with a few cameras hooked up. This leaves half the course uncovered by fiber. So in order to cover this portion of the course they need to have some sort of transmission system. The cheapest way would be 4G like we do, but then you lose the fidelity. OR you never go live in the area that isn't covered by fiber. And instead you stay "live" around the lake all day and then you bring in Jomez & additional camera files and quickly edit them every few holes and insert them between actual live shots. This would provide an equally high fidelity that the fiber drops provide them. Then once the players get back to hole 17 you go live with them again. Kinda like the PGA does.
Of course this is gonna require a pretty big group of people doing this. My guess would be at least 2 or 3 editors onsite, 3 or 4 cameramen, Producer, production assistant, & 2 talent. Not to mention graphics and stuff before hand. Obviously this is going to come at a pretty big expense. But I also think that if they can pull it off it will be great, possibly the best we have seen in the sport.
I also expect very few commercials & a lot of interest pieces to be produced. Innova isn't going to sell out their event with other sponsors when they can afford to foot the bill.
I do expect an announcement soon on their plans, unless they are waiting until after USWDGC. And as I said on the podcast this week, if they don't push it out via YouTube or at least Twitch, it is an immediate fail. Those are the easiest CDNs to push to your TV and get on all devices... but I expect that they know that already.
