[Via Satellite 03-08-2016] OSN, pay-TV provider in the Middle East and North Africa, is ramping up capacity on the Eutelsat 8 West B satellite operated by Eutelsat Communications. Additional capacity at the Middle East’s TV neighborhood will support more expansion for OSN, including new High Definition (HD) channels and the introduction of Ultra-HD services.

OSN will take advantage of the additional capacity to introduce Ultra HD services that will bring the most current TV experience to viewers in the Middle East, offering an image quality four times richer than Full HD. OSN also plans to ramp up its HD offer, with eight new channels announced recently and several new premium and exclusive channels to be launched soon.
