On the back of a strategic collaboration that delivered a series of pioneering 5G broadcast network trials in Poland, Italian transmission specialist Syes is at IBC to showcase the standalone system helping to shape the future of broadcasting.
Working with technology partners Bcast and Nakolos, Syes says the alliance marks a milestone in broadcasting technologies, proving that 5G broadcast technology is not only a powerful tool for media distribution but also for public safety and emergency communications.
Gianluca Baccalini, Sales and Marketing Director, Syes, said: “There is real need from both private and public broadcasters to assess the technical features and potential advantages of 5G broadcast. We have invested in this technology since the start; Syes invests in every worldwide modulation scheme in the world, and therefore it was mandatory for us to invest in this trial.”
In addition to enabling simulcast scenarios, 5G broadcast can also deliver public disaster and crisis warning, CDN offloading for cost savings, low latency delivery of live events and greater resilience via satellite. Visitors to IBC can see the collaboration in Hall 8.
