DVB-T2 signals across Austria. ORS is solely responsible for the construction,

enable efficient and secure multicast through out the network.

showed that the Nimbra platform, thanks to its QoS and service integrity
features, improves the performance of the underlying IP infrastructure"
The first phase of the rollout is based on more than 40 Nimbra 680 nodes and
will begin in the third quarter of 2012. The roll-out of the DVB-T2 network will
continue during 2013 and 2014.
