Olympic role for Net Insight

Net Insight has received orders from several leading media service providers for connectivity between major broadcasters and the Olympic IBC this summer (or ‘the TV/media centre of a major sports event in London this summer’ as the release coyly puts it).

Net Insight will deliver the Nimbra MSR platform to handle video transport for several leading media service providers between major broadcasters and the IBC, as well as being used in remote production set-ups.

The requirements of the broadcasters vary to a large extent, something that Net Insight has easily met with its flexible platform for all the different media and IP formats as well as different link capabilities, including fibre, SDH and IP capacity. The Nimbra MSR platform’s inherent “service awareness” is important for guaranteeing full quality video and other mission-critical traffic for this important event.

The total value of these orders exceeds SEK 6 million. Deliveries take place during the first quarter of 2012.

“It is encouraging to note that when important sports events take place, Net Insight is a trusted vendor of many leading service providers of the world,” says Fredrik Trägårdh, CEO of Net Insight. ”We have received orders from several different customers related to the coming major event this summer.”
