Distribution

Hispasat provides TV and radio distribution services within the coverage of all its satellites and on any of its connectivity options: Europe-Europe, America-America, Europe-America, and America-Europe.

In distribution services, content, once received and processed at the satellite transmission center, is broadcast via satellite for subsequent reception and dissemination through terrestrial networks: UHF/VHF, cable systems, microwave systems, etc.

Hispasat, together with its partners, provides transmission services that can combine satellite technology with terrestrial technologies, enabling high-quality, high-availability service to its customers.

Benefits:

• Deployment of very high-capacity networks with high availability rates.
• 100% coverage of the territory.

DTT

Hispasat satellites can complement the Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) services offered through the UHF networks of radio and television broadcasting centers for: the distribution (transport) of the DTT signal to the terrestrial transmitter network, and the broadcast of the television signal to homes in white coverage areas.

The service focused on the distribution of the TV signal to the terrestrial transmitter network is detailed below:

• In this case, the satellite is responsible for transporting the signal to the TV transmitters, and they are responsible for broadcasting the signal to homes.
• The satellite can constitute the nominal transport solution or a backup solution, guaranteeing the continuity of the system's operation in the event of a failure or congestion of the main network.
