Broadband TV News: Intelsat renews Hungarian DTH at 1 West

Story from Broadband TV News:

Intelsat has renewed its capacity agreement with 4iG Group’s Hungaro Digitel.

The company provides direct-to-home satellite services in Hungary for One Telecommunication from the Intelsat 1West (1W) video neighborhood.

“With this long-term agreement with Intelsat, the 4iG Group has secured the infrastructure required to serve Hungarian satellite television subscribers. The Intelsat’s satellite continuously provides DTH transmission for Hungaro DigiTel and One Hungary. This agreement reinforces 4iG’s leading position in Hungary’s satellite TV market,” said Sándor Molnár, CEO of Hungaro DigiTel.

Several million households in Central and East Europe are served by Intelsat and Space Norway’s co-located Thor craft.

“This renewal highlights the enduring strength of the DTH market in Hungary and our commitment to providing reliable satellite services to meet the evolving needs of our customers, and, ultimately, their viewers,” said Rhys Morgan, RVP of the EMEA region for Intelsat. “We remain committed to supporting 4iG Group’s long-term growth strategy and evolving satellite capacity needs.”

It means a seamless continuation of 4iG Group, which will work on set-top box upgrades and additional value-added services in collaboration with the Intelsat team.
