Net Insight receives first order for a TV distribution network in China
September 8, 2008
STOCKHOLM -- Net Insight, leading developer of efficient and scalable optical transport solutions for media, IP and broadcast networks, has received an order from a Chinese customer to deploy a DMB-T (Digital Multimedia Broadcast Terrestrial) distribution network.
This Chinese customer will build a network in a province. The network includes a combination of Nimbra 360 switches with the GPS independent Time Transfer function and a powerful multicast engine for TV distribution to fixed television, buses, vehicles and mobile handsets.
Digital TV transmission requires very exact time synchronization at the transmitter stations, which usually rely on GPS receivers. The Nimbra platform will provide efficient transport of compressed video and Net Insight's unique Time Transfer function allowing Single Frequency Network synchronization signals to replace GPS receivers at multiple TV transmitters in the network. The Time Transfer function will reduce costs and vulnerability in the network.
"This is an important further step for us, not only in China but also in the growing market for Digital Terrestrial and Mobile TV networks", said Fredrik Trägårdh, CEO of Net Insight.
