Hong Kong – Asia Satellite Telecommunications Company Ltd has launched a full transponder C-band MCPC (Multiple Channels per Carrier) technology platform to provide video, audio, data and IP-based broadcast services on AsiaSat 3S at AsiaSat’s Tai Po Earth Station in Hong Kong. Through this new platform, AsiaSat will provide a one-stop package to broadcasters irrespective of locations. Working with its partners, AsiaSat now offers space segment, optical fibre, downlink, uplink and other value-added services including playout and conditional access from Hong Kong onto AsiaSat 3S. The multi-client platform enables broadcast customers to deliver their services in SD or HD at full power of the transponder. Peter Jackson, CEO, AsiaSat said, “The launch of a new platform on AsiaSat 3S, one of the world’s most watched satellites is the first step to capitalise on our assets and expertise. This platform will complement our existing MCPC platforms that are operated either directly by our Tai Po Earth Station in Hong Kong or by our partners throughout the region.”
