The Pac-12 Network is mainly a sports oriented satellite television channel owned by the Pac-12 Conference hence its name! The studio and production facilities are based in San Francisco and shares the building with Comcast SportsNet Bay Area. In addition to a national network, the Pac-12 also operates half a dozen regional sports networks which mainly focus on college sporting events in different schools that are part of the conference. The Pac-12 Network was announced in 2011 but was launched a year later on August 15th, 2012 and was instantly available to over 48 million households in the US. The regional networks are available to providers in their respective Pac-12 territory. It is the first network to be owned by a conference without any external support.
