NSS-7
High-powered
Ku- and C-band services from the hottest location for trans-Atlantic
connectivity. NSS-7 is a major, state-of-the-art, hybrid Ku- and
C-band satellite located at 338º East over the Atlantic Ocean,
providing coverage of Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and the
Americas.
The world's leading contribution
satellite
NSS-7 at 338° East is located at the
world's premier orbital location for video contribution. Its
extensive coverage of the Atlantic Ocean region makes it an ideal
satellite for bringing programming from media hubs in Europe, the
Middle East, Africa and Latin America into the East Coast of the U.S,
for onward continental distribution via domestic satellites.
Likewise, media companies with bureaus in the U.S. can use NSS-7 to
contribute programming to their home studios in Europe, the Middle
East and Latin America—and other Atlantic region
locations--through the use of either Ku-band antennas at their
remote facilities, or via the Washington Mediaport's uplink
services. A DVB MCPC platform into NSS-7's Europe-Middle East beam
offers a cost efficient, high-performance alternative to SCPC
circuits.
Distribution into Africa
NSS-7 is capable of delivering video
signals into West Africa at DTH-type power-levels. DVB MCPC
platforms into the Ku-band West Africa beam and the C-band South
East Zone beam into southern Africa offers media companies added
opportunities for extending the reach of their French- and
English-language channels to burgeoning audience markets at
reasonable cost.
For ISPs and Network Providers
North American Internet backbone
connectivity into Europe, the Middle East and Southern Africa
ISPs and network providers interested
in providing North American Internet backbone connectivity to Points
of Presence in Europe, the Middle East and Africa can rely on
established DVB platforms on NSS-7’s Ku-band Europe/Middle East
beam, and C-band South East Zone beam into Southern Africa.
The Europe/Middle East spot is
capable of reaching the entire European sub-continent as far west as
Moscow, south through the whole of the Black Sea region, and
throughout all of Mediterranean North Africa.
NSS-7’s C-band coverage via the
South East Zone beam provides connectivity to any of 42 countries
from southern Morocco to Somalia, and all points South.
Features
Some of the features NSS-7 offers:
complete coverage of Latin America,
Europe, Africa and the Middle East from a single location;
connectivity from the heartland of the Internet to the edge of the
Web; high-powered Ku-band coverage for broadcasters and ISPs; among
the best connectivity options on the market. NSS-7 also provides
high-powered Ku-band coverage of Western and Southern Africa for DTH
services; extensive tailored Ku-band coverage of South America,
including a new Southern Cone spot beam for the Mercosur region; a
Caribbean/Andean spot beam; and extended North American Ku-band
coverage for Northeast Canada. EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated
Power)
