2 Powerful yet Scalable & Flexible The addresses the changing needs of the broadcast transmission market. It follows & drives these trends and evolutions: Convergence of broadcast & ICT for All-IP networks, yet remain interoperable with an installed legacy base of MPEG codecs Combination of VSAT & SCPC technologies, to provide always-on IP connectivity and automated contribution & exchange services for Live & File-based broadcast transmission workflows Integration and automation of the equipment to provide managed broadcast services. This simplifies the enduser and operational experience and you benefit from the optimization of multiplexing multiple broadcast services onto single platform to provide compelling CAPEX & OPEX efficiencies Scalable platform with hybrid IP connectivity between multiple satellite frequency bands and terrestrial/ submarine fiber infrastructure, maintaining homogeneous connectivity, manageability and services. The system is very easy and cost-effective to start small, for instance, just for live SD or HD newsgathering services, for a few SNGs, and then grow the network over time. This growth may happen, for example, by adding file based contribution workflows, growing the SNG fleet, adding Flyaways, adding fixed contribution capability for sports or special events, extending to include content and asset exchange and network delivery services (file and/or live) in a hybrid satellite & terrestrial IP architecture. The phased growth can easily fit with annual CAPEX budgets and the OPEX costs can be carefully managed to ensure efficient use of satellite and terrestrial bandwidth, with capacity only expanded when actually required, ensuring the highest possible utilization of costly bandwidth resources, for the best ROI (Return on Investment) possible. The Live and File transmission capability has been designed to fit the specific needs of the professional broadcast industry. The system integrates delivery of metadata, necessary for effective broadcast file workflows. The flexible system facilitates implementation of multiple workflows designed to suit individual needs.

File Based TV Contribution/Exchange File based Store & Forward capability for file newsgathering and contribution, exchange of content in distributed production and network delivery of finished assets. Permanent TV & Radio Exchange/Distribution Permanent services for content feeds and primary distribution of TV and Radio (e.g. DTT and FM Radio primary distribution). Radio distribution in MPEG- HE-AAC also supports insertion of dynamic RDS and localised advertisements in the managed FM towers. Always-On IP Connectivity Services Optional VoIP voice co-ordination capability, Intranet & Internet IP connectivity. The always-on VSAT IP can also be used, for example, to provide monitoring & control (M&C) connectivity to remote broadcast towers and other SCADA applications Local & Central Content Storage/Archiving Live & File transmissions can also be copied to the local Hybrid Satellite/Terrestrial IP Session based setup of Live & File links across multiple satellite bands (e.g. Ku and C) and hybrid satellite/terrestrial IP networks for footprint extender scenarios and global content ingest and delivery. Reservation, Scheduling & Automation The system manages satellite & IP capacity, scheduling and automating the system equipment to provide baseband & IP services that highly optimizes bandwidth to provide professional-grade services, cost-effectively and easy to use. Making a phone call used to be like legacy broadcast transmission, requiring operators to configure and manually setup links. The system is analogous to modern telephony where the user just dials end-to-end or sets up a conference, accessing file based voice mail, with good quality, high availability, and reliably. 3
