Nautel Will Make TV Transmitters
|
Transmitter manufacturer Nautel Ltd. is moving into
television.
“Nautel
will initially focus its efforts on the 2 W to 100 W UHF power
range and will support worldwide
digital transmission standards,” it announced.
“The company’s
first product, the NT100, will be introduced at the upcoming IBC show and will anchor the NT Series
of low-power TV transmitters.”
The company, headquartered in Canada,
said the move is partly in response to “consistent demand” from customers.
President/CEO Peter Conlon and Director of Sales Chuck Kelly made
the announcement.
Kelly will head the TV initiative. He
said in the statement, “Most
broadcasters worldwide will be deploying high numbers of low-power
transmitters, and that
presents a real need for the reliable, remotely managed, low cost of ownership
transmitters that Nautel will bring to the market.”
A U.S. introduction is planned for later this year.
