New York — Genesis Networks, provider of global video transmission services, has established a strategic point of presence (POP) in Singapore via its first regional partnership with Singapore-based ST Teleport. Genesis Networks is looking to capitalize on the infrastructure and geographical positioning of the country for the transport of full-time and ad hoc TV transmissions. Genesis’ new Singapore POP enables global broadcasters to reach audiences in Asia and Asian broadcasters deliver ethnic programming to expatriate audiences in North America and other parts of the world. The company’s satellite infrastructure is available on a permanent, full-time basis, or as an occasional-use network for broadcast of sports and other short-term events. Paul Dujardin, President and CEO of Genesis Networks said, “Our low-cost backhaul services are a vital resource for smaller, regional channels, but that focus is beginning to broaden as high-definition broadcasting continues to emerge throughout Asia. Now, major global players are developing strategies for delivering HD content to Asia, and they’re looking to Genesis Networks to provide the infrastructure.” As a new member of Genesis Networks’ global video-over-IP fiber network, ST Teleport can provide access to broadcast hubs and media POPs in North and South America, Europe, and various Asian markets. Likewise, ST Teleport provides Genesis with satellite-based infrastructure to support the growing demand in the region for its inbound and outbound broadcast delivery.
