[Satellite TODAY 09-21-10] GlobeCast has established a point of presence terrestrial link in Warsaw, Poland, to allow the company to offer hybrid satellite-fiber solutions in Eastern and Central Europe and to transport audio-visual content between this region and the rest of the world, GlobeCast announced Sept. 20.
    The link also aims to give Polish broadcast networks access to GlobeCast teleports and satellite platforms around the world. GlobeCast said it could use the new connection to receive a channel’s signal directly in Warsaw and deliver that channel to its Paris teleport for broadcast on Hot Bird or any other of its satellite platforms in the world, including North America and Canada.
    GlobeCast’s network now spans more 92,000 kilometers of DTM fiber linking Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas.
