RRsat
Global Communications Network announced on November 12 that they will
be serving as the main Eurasian teleport hub of the European Broadcasting
Union Network (EBU) for the next few years. On behalf of the EBU,
RRsat will distribute both standard and high definition footage of
sports news, special events, and other digital media content delivery
services
The
EBU Network is an alliance of European and international public
service media organizations with members in 56 countries. It operates
Eurovision, the leading distributor and producer of entertainment,
culture and music content for the media industry.
In addition to setting up bi-directional fiber connectivity between the RRsat-operated teleport in Israel and EBU Network's headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, RRsat will also handle its client's occasional use of satellite-to-satellite transmissions and traffic monitoring of the three separate satellites that provided capacity for EBU.

According
to Paolo Pusterla, Head Of Procurement for EBU, RRsat was
selected after a careful evaluation of its capabilities, such as its
teleport services, fiber network, master control room (MCR),
engineering team, and coordination/booking skill. In addition, EBU
Network representatives paid a visit to RRsat's new teleport in
Israel.
