The deal for one full transponder, which was first signed in 1992, secures capacity for the Polsat group to broadcast its stable of channels to 9.5 million Polish cable and DTH homes.
Polsat made its debut in 1992 and currently operates a total of 13 channels. Its sister company Cyfrowy Polsat is Poland’s leading DTH platform.
