Net Insight delivers 14-cities media network to Germany's largest broadcaster


One of WDR's key requirements is that bursty IP traffic, telephony and mission critical TV contribution and distribution streams should be transported cost efficiently, and with full quality, in the same network. A total of 13 services, with strict quality of service requirements for each service, were specified. The equipment will be delivered during 2004.

- In our market research and Tender process we have compared Net Insight's solution with solutions from many other vendors. Net Insight's solution truly stands out as way ahead of the other solutions. It is the solution that fits all of our requirements best, and it does so with a better cost efficiency than any of the competing solutions, says Dr Dieter Hoff, Technical Director of WDR.

- We have sold network solutions to broadcasters for many years and Net Insight's solution clearly represents a quantum leap for terrestrial broadcast networking. The platform is technically superior compared to other solutions and has a lower cost of ownership, we see a great potential for Net Insight's solutions, says Ulrich Mohr, Sales Director at Controlware.

Broadcasters have commercially used Net Insight's solutions for contribution and distribution since early 2000. Among other well-known users are MSNBC, FOX, CBS, ABC, Savvis, KPN and UPC.

- Lately, Net Insight has received large orders form WDR and two major media network operators. We are without doubt the technology leader and we are on route for market leadership, says Tomas Duffy, CEO Net Insight.
