05 Broadcast and media solutions SPACE FOR ALL DIGITAL FORMATS Central Eastern Europe is a dynamic broadcasting region. It was among the first to adopt digital satellite transmission and both incumbent and new Direct-to-Home (DTH) operators are currently transitioning from standard to high definition format to enhance the consumer s viewing experience and choice of programmes. Terrestrial, cable and IPTV providers, despite being limited by analogue technology, lack of funding to ensure geographical reach and insufficient network capacity to introduce HDTV, are following their lead. Satellites play a key role in these developing markets, as the fastest and most efficient route to deliver content directly to homes or to terrestrial head-ends. Eutelsat s satellites are a longstanding part of the infrastructure in CEE. Our company s experience, expertise and innovation are available to media companies operating in this fast-moving environment.
