(1888PressRelease) June 21, 2011 - MediaCorp will set up a trial network to showcase DVB-T2 MultiPLP capability in delivering SD, HD and 3DTV programs within a single frequency during Broadcast Asia 2011 held in Suntec Singapore from 21 to 24 June 2011. The trial network will subsequently be expanded for a DTV-T2 Trial commissioned by Media Development Authority of Singapore.

In this project, ENENSYS provides the DVB-T2 key elements:
- the DVB-T2 Gateway, installed at the Head End site, used to adapt of the content to the DVB-T2 standard, to create the MultiPLP, to generate the T2-MI packets and to deliver the content to the transmitter sites in a synchronized SFN environment.
- the DVB-T2 modulator, associated to the transmitter, receives the generated streams and configuration from the DVB-T2 Gateway and modulate it to a DVB-T2 signal, managing the different PLP.

"We are very pleased to participate and support MediaCorp in this important trial which will provide the necessary experience for the next steps, including the commercial deployment. Taking advantage of our expertise in different DVB-T2 deployments, we are implementing the DVB-T2 key elements allowing MediaCorp to benefit from the full capacity of this technology. We strongly believe in DVB-T2 technology and we are supporting MediaCorp to ensure a successful project" said Emmanuel JACQUES, Sales Manager at ENENSYS.
