Net Insight Solution Deployed to Replace France Télévisions Satellite Back-Up Network for Overseas Territories
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
New media contribution and distribution network helping national broadcaster
increase operational agility, achieve significant cost savings, and maximize
service availability and reach
Stockholm, Sweden - Net Insight, the leading provider in media transport and
resource scheduling, today announces that France Télévisions Réseau Outre-Mer,
the network of TV and radio stations operating in France's overseas territories
around the world, has deployed the company's internet media transport solution,
Nimbra VA 220, for a new media contribution and distribution network. The
network operates between France Télévisions' production facility outside Paris,
and its overseas territories, which include Martinique, Réunion, Saint Pierre
and Miquelon, Guadeloupe and French Guiana.
For any national broadcaster today the requirements placed on them to provide
"more for less'" by controlling costs, yet still offering a high-quality viewing
experience, can be challenging. Achieving these goals at a worldwide level where
connectivity resources are limited can prove even more difficult. This was just
such a challenge that France Télévisions faced and one that has been solved by
the deployment of Net Insight's internet media transport solution.
Significantly, this includes the replacement of the broadcaster's satellite
back-up network and the ability to add more territories in the future, without
having to completely overhaul its current infrastructure.
"We can now consider a far wider array of live broadcasting services, often
presented at very short notice, for our overseas territories where difficult
connectivity environments had, until now, hindered numerous high-quality
broadcast opportunities" said Pascal Gerard, broadcast director, French overseas
territories, at France Télévisions. "Net Insight's solution reduces our
operational costs significantly, while at the same time enabling us to maximize
our service availability and reach to our overseas territories."
"France Télévisions is a significant customer for Net Insight and shows that our
presence in the French market is growing," said Fredrik Tumegård, CEO at Net
Insight. "With our solution in place, France Télévisions can now realize a
scalable, flexible and reliable business continuity solution that delivers a
high quality viewing experience to it its territories, addressing some of the
biggest challenges they aimed to overcome."
Net Insight's French partner Metracom was instrumental in building the network
and manages the network as a managed service for France Télévisions.
The deployment of the network started in 2014 and has continued throughout
2016.
