Two things we did that seemed to help:
1) Increase the bitrate from 2000 to 2500 on the encoder. This gives more of a cushion when your provider squeezes your bandwidth a bit or squirrels dance on your lines.
2) Don't splitcam for a minute and see if that helps. Even if your total bandwidth is huge, the multiple broadcasts still compete with each other.
