[Satellite TODAY 09-11-09] ND SatCom introduced its brand-new Ka- and Ku-dual band SNG vehicle and service for broadcasters and operators, the company announced Sept. 11.
    ND SatCom uses satellite capacity of its parent company SES Astra in efforts to provide satellite capacity, an SNG vehicle and an upgrade kit for the satellite uplink as part of the service.
    “Content producing and delivering companies currently sail against the wind of the harsh economic environment and dispose of tighter investment budgets. Our system allows a very cost-efficient usage of Ka-Band capacities, and for those operators and broadcasters, who already have a Ku-Band SNG fleet, the upgrade kit is a flexible option to save bandwidth or use it more efficiently", said Johann Pohany, managing director and CTO of ND SatCom, in a statement.
