GlobeCast, the worlds leading content management company via satellite and fiber for professional broadcast, announced today that it has been selected by MobiTV, the global leader in mobile and broadband television and music services, to manage critical content ingestion to support the delivery of live television to MobiTVs mobile and broadband platforms in North America.
From its digital broadcast center and teleport in Los Angeles, the Companys IP broadcasting hub in the U.S., GlobeCast is furnishing 24/7 channel ingest via satellite, signal encoding, monitoring and connectivity of live channels for delivery into MobiTVs proprietary technology platform(s).
By centralizing our channel ingestion, MobiTV is now able to easily ingest and move channels on a global scale across GlobeCasts worldwide network of teleports, satellite capacities and a global fiber ring, said Kay Johansson, CTO for MobiTV. Not only do we have more flexibility to scale internationally, we have a solution in place that protects our proprietary technology while keeping our partners content secure.
The agreement with MobiTV confirms GlobeCasts growing leadership position as a global content manager and aggregator for IP-delivered video to telco, cable and mobile platforms.
