Net Insight enabling contribution services to new major operator in China for the Asian Games
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Net Insight, a leading developer of efficient and scalable transport solutions for media, IP and broadcast networks, has received an order for a contribution network from one of China's largest media and cable network operators. The media and cable operator will initially use Net Insight's Nimbra platform to provide video contribution services for a Chinese broadcaster from the Asian Games in November. Following the customer's proof-of-concept testing it was concluded that the Nimbra platform was the most flexible media transport solution. In particular the operator appreciated its future-proof characteristics such as full multi-service support, seamless migration to IP, and built-in JPEG 2000 compression. The solution delivers ASI and Ethernet services implementing the high-capacity Nimbra switch in a mesh network topology for maximum availability. The Nimbra Vision network management system with its end-to-end provisioning and service pre-emption was also superior to competing management solutions. The order was received in partnership with one of Net Insight's partners in China, CSS, Century Sage Scientific. "I view this initial order from one of the major media and cable operators in China as strategic for Net Insight. The Chinese market has a great potential and is another step towards expanding in this market." said Fredrik Trägårdh, CEO of Net Insight. "Together with our partner CSS we have won this key account and I now look forward to a successful implementation and future expansion."
