Broadcast Engineering

TSA has been delivering complex audiovisual integration projects for clients around the world for over 25 years. End-to-end audiovisual and broadcast projects, including design, equipment supply, installation and integration, training, coaching and maintenance of the installations.

In 1998, TSA took a qualitative and quantitative leap forward when it became part of the Vía Digital project, the Telefónica Group’s pay-TV platform. TSA was responsible for the design, supply and operation of all the technical infrastructures required for the production and distribution of the platform’s various contents, through its own audiovisual engineering project. Since then, TSA has been involved in the most important projects and services in the broadcast sector in Spain, not only for Telefónica and Movistar, but also for many public and private television networks and in more than 15 countries in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and America.

Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales is a company in the broadcasting sector that has offered its clients a wide range of services since it was founded. Over the years, and depending on the needs of the moment, it has equipped itself with all types of audiovisual technical infrastructure:

• Mobile units
• DSNG
• Studios
• Virtual sets
• Audio and video production control rooms
• Video and audio editing suites
• Play-Out Centres
• Archiving systems
• Content Management Systems
• Teleport

All these systems and equipment have been designed, acquired and integrated with TSA’s own engineering, the same engineering team that designs, acquires, deployes and implements the systems required by public and private television and radio stations in every country where we work.

This experience, accumulated in its own audiovisual services projects – of operation and maintenance with equipment and systems designed and integrated – gives TSA an enriching and unusual user experience, which allows it to approach its clients’ audiovisual integration projects with a much broader perspective and greater sensitivity, getting much closer to the problems and needs of its clients, which undoubtedly distinguishes it from other audiovisual integrators in the sector. This experience has given TSA a very solid base for carrying out engineering projects for third parties.

TSA has extensive experience in projects related to the broadcast sector, such as television and/or radio production centres or teleports, amongst others, but it is also a pioneer in the implementation of digital transformation projects in television stations, initially towards comprehensive digital systems, in the changes from SD to HD or 4K, and currently towards systems with an IP core within the SMPTE-2110 protocol, the IP video broadcast.

At a time of digital transformation, Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales is aware of how difficult it is to find a suitable partner to carry out projects of this type, which is why TSA’s clients are looking for a reliable, robust, efficient partner with a good reputation and the corporate responsibility and financial capacity that comes with being part of a multinational group such as Telefónica Group. An engineering company that is used to working on complex, innovative projects in demanding environments, without, of course, losing the ability to adapt dynamically to new needs that may arise during the execution of each project. This partner is Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales.

TSA’s main objective is to establish lasting and satisfactory relationships with its clients, accompanying them through the continuous process of digital and technological transformation that is taking place in the media sector. This service philosophy makes TSA feel more like a business partner than a mere supplier in the professional relationship with the companies that use its services.

TSA’s main asset is its clients, who are at the heart of all its projects.
