Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales (TSA) has been selected to provide satellite signal receivers to EITB Media S.A., thanks to an innovative proposal designed to enhance the reception and decoding of audiovisual signals in mobile units, both for their own contributions and those from third parties.

The project involves the renewal of satellite signal receiver-decoders at the EiTB headquarters in Bilbao and in the mobile units, with the aim of gradually replacing those capable only of decoding HD signals with others compatible with UHD signals.

For this purpose, TSA has selected equipment from the renowned manufacturer Ateme, a leader in advanced video compression solutions for the broadcasting and telecommunications industry.

The proposed solution is based on the TITAN EDGE platform, an innovative multichannel baseband video distribution system that allows encoding/transcoding of different inputs into multiple outputs with various resolutions, codecs, and bit rates. The receivers-decoders offered to EITB are compatible with the latest standards, including UHD and 4K.

Additionally, TSA offers comprehensive maintenance and support services for 3 years, ensuring smooth operational development after project implementation.

This modernization will allow EITB Media S.A. to have a more robust infrastructure, prepared for future demands of the audiovisual market, ensuring a high-quality viewing experience for its viewers.
