RRSat brings SVT all over Europe

March 7, 2008 10.14 Europe/London By Robert Briel

Sweden’s public broadcaster SVT (Sveriges Television) service has chosen RRsat to expand its coverage all over Europe. The operator will distribute the SVT channel to Europe, Northern Africa & the Middle East over the Eurobird-9 satellite.

Over the past three years RRsat has been distributing the SVT Europa channel over its Global Network to Asia through the Thaicom-5 Satellite.

“After using RRsat´s turnaround services since 2005 for SVT Europa´s Direct-To-Home distribution to Asia, Australia and Africa, we are very pleased to expand our cooperation with RRsat to include Direct-To-Home services through Eurobird-9 satellite to Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East”, said Riffa Hänninen, Head of SVT Europa, in a prepared statement.

SVT Europa moved from its previous berth on Sirius at 5 degrees East in December, but the role of RRSat has only just be revealed.
