ND SatCom, an SES ASTRA company and a leading global supplier of satellite-based broadband VSAT, broadcast, government and defence communication network solutions, has announced at IBC 2006 that the Greek systems integrator BLK has awarded them a contract for a SkyRAY antenna subsystem.
BLK will further integrate ND SatCom components such as a 400 Watt Ku-band amplifier and an encoder into a Kia Sorento and finally deliver the SNG vehicle to a Greek broadcaster. No financial details have been disclosed.
The contract is of strategic importance for ND SatCom as it is the first SNG system delivered to the Greek broadcast market. There are options for follow-up orders.
ND SatCom, who showcased its 100th SkyRAY antenna subsystem at IBC 2006 in a special golden edition, convinced BLK at the tradeshow in terms of presentation and performance of the subsystem, which was tried and tested at ND SatCom's outside exhibition area. Dieter Dreizler, Director Sales, says: "We are very proud to announce this deal.
Our outstanding trade show appearance combined with our leading edge Satellite News Gathering technologies convinced BLK that ND SatCom is the best business partner for their mobile broadcast solution demands."
