Servicing the TV and Radio world : the Ģevolving media scopeģ of a telecom operator
Frank MEERT (BE) Expert Telecom Consultant -- Belgacom (Brussels)
Following an introduction to Belgacom, we review Belgacom's satellite diffusion solutions and leading cutting-edge services designed for the TV and Radio market. Examples and reference cases will show the practical view of Belgacom's evolving media world of today.
Starting with the more traditional contribution and diffusion approach to TV broadcasting alone. Looking for the most cost-effective solution with investment sharing, compression and dedicated tailored solution. Belgacom has done it for the European Community by implementing their TV programme contribution and diffusion in 14 langages!
Moving on with Internet interaction: streaming, hosting, carrying voice and images over a fixed data network infrastructure as Belgacom has done for the European Football Championship FORTO 2000.
And, last but not least, creating with its customers new concepts as Belgacom has done with Liberty TV, mixing together the traditionnal broadcasting communication means with the personal touch of telephone communication, along with the Internet huge information pipeline and process facilitator.
Today, no need to say Belgacom has the latest technologies with Multimedia over Satellite and Internet over Satellite.
All of those technologies would be worthless if there were not the people to put them together and make things happen. Belgacom and You. We are looking forward to meeting you at our conference.
