For the last 2 FTC qualifiers at our school I setup a similar live stream. We used the KOP Axis camera, ran into a switch which also had an internet connection. Then a dedicated computer was running
Adobe FMLE with a "IP camera driver". We had various amount of success with different drivers, but
this one worked with the axis camera IIRC, but you can find more info on similar drivers by searching Google. With FMLE you can stream directly to UStream and a few other services as well. If you are using a streaming service you can utilize their own streaming software, but FMLE gave the best quality and frame rate in my experience. Having a solid internet connection is the only drawback I can see with this setup.
