Net Insights Nimbra platform selected for Digital Terrestrial TV network in Eastern Europe



Stockholm, Sweden - Net Insight, a leading provider of efficient
optical transport solutions for media, broadcast and IP networks has
received an order from a media operator in Eastern Europe for the
first phase of the national Digital Terrestrial TV distribution
network.

The media operator operates a nationwide analogue and digital
television and radio network in an East European country. The DTT
network will be based on Net Insight's Nimbra platform to distribute
uncompressed and compressed video (HD-SDI, SD-SDI and ASI) across the
country. The network will also provide scalable multicast
capabilities and incorporate Net Insight's unique Time Transfer
feature for GPS-free time synchronization.

DTT and Mobile TV often require a Single Frequency Network (SFN)
where the transmitter stations must be synchronized to send their
signals at exactly the same time. Nimbra 360 has a unique Time
Transfer capability that allows highly accurate distribution of real
time over the same network that carries the video signals. This
eliminates the need for costly and potentially vulnerable GPS
receivers in the network.

The solution also includes Nimbra Vision, a complete tool for
efficient operation and maintenance of the Nimbra network.

The Nimbra platform is a versatile transport solution with several
unique features for DTT networks. In addition, Nimbra offers a
flexible and cost-effective solution for delivering advanced
multimedia services in Broadcast and Media networks and for IPTV/CATV
distribution. TV operators deploying Digital Terrestrial TV based on
the Nimbra platform not only get a DTT network but a multi-service
transport infrastructure that opens up new business opportunities,
turning the network into a very powerful media contribution platform.

The order is the first phase of the project to build a nationwide DTT
network and the initial Nimbra equipment was delivered September 30,
2009.
