Singapore/Hong Kong/New Delhi/Paris/London – GlobeCast has signed a deal for an additional full transponder on the AsiaSat 5 100.5°E (formerly AsiaSat 2) satellite for permanent and adhoc clients. The increased capacity on AsiaSat 5 will first of all serve to meet coverage needs at major live news and sporting events slated in 2010 such as the World Cup in South Africa, Asian Games, G20 Summit in Korea, and Commonwealth Games in India. The transponder will also be used to launch permanent channels, which will be uplinked from Jordan Media City in Amman and linked to the rest of the world via GlobeCast’s worldwide satellite and fiber network. AsiaSat 5’s pan-Asian C-band footprint provides a comprehensive reach to two-thirds of the world’s population spanning across 53 countries in the Asia-Pacific. In recent months, GlobeCast has also acquired additional capacity with global satellite operators Intelsat and Eutelsat.
