Net Insight wins large German order

Net Insight is trumpeting a major new customer win from a German broadcaster investing in a contribution network, though apart from it being a member of ARD, it’s remaining coy about who exactly it is.

The unnamed customer has purchased Net Insight’s Nimbra Platform for contribution of video, radio and data between its headquarters and to more than 15 sites in Germany. Other details emerging form the mists include the fact that the order value exceeds SEK 20 Million and the network will be operational in 2012.

The order was won in partnership with one of Net Insight’s German resellers.

“This is a new customer for us and a large member of the ARD group of public broadcasters in Germany. Many of the ARD members have already deployed our Nimbra platform for contribution and distribution of TV, audio and data signals across Germany” says Fredrik Trägårdh, CEO of Net Insight. “There is a tough competition on the Germany market and with this win, one of our most important this year, our position as the most efficient and cost effective media transport solution is reconfirmed.”
