LAS VEGAS, April 28, 2006/Satnews Daily/ — International Datacasting Corp. (TSX:IDC) said on Thursday it has received an order for 400 DVB-S2 receivers from Access Integrated Technologies, Inc. (AccessIT) (NASDAQ:AIXD), a provider of digital cinema software and services.
In conjunction with the Christie/AIX turnkey digital cinema deployment, AccessIT said it will be providing satellite receivers to locations across the United States and Canada enabling simultaneous broadcast delivery of feature films, advertisements, and alternative content to theatres.
DVB-S2 is the latest breakthrough in broadband satellite technology providing higher orders of modulation and forward error correction—offering a choice of bandwidth savings or higher speed delivery in the order of 30-40% over previous levels. The SRA3100 can be used for both file-based content and live events.
B. Scott Cassell, chief technology officer of AccessIT’s Digital Media Services Division, said IDC receivers were chosen after rigorous testing.
Digital cinema is an exciting market, ideally-suited to satellite delivery, said IDC president and CEO Ron Clifton. “We are pleased to be part of this innovative product offering and look forward to supporting AccessIT as it grows and expands.”
