Madrid-based Albalá Ingenerios has supplied terminal infrastructure equipment to Chile’s Claro direct-to-home (DTH) satellite platform.

The operation, which has been carried out through Alabalá’s local distributor Chile Total Telecommunications, has seen several devices from the TL3000 line sold to the América Móvil pay-TV operator.

Aiming to integrate all types of IRD, ASI and IP signals into Claro’s DTH platform and construction of back-up physical networks, Albalá has supplied a variety of TL3000 modules, including a dual DVB-IP to DVB-ASI and DVB-ASI to DVB-IP converter and an automated switch for SD-SDI digital video.

“Albalá Ingenieros continues with their strategy of international expansion and has showed with this contract that it remains in the vanguard of technological development,” said the company in a release.

In fact, the Chilean agreement is the second one Albalá has recently announced in Latin America. In September, Colombia’s WIN Sports selected the Spanish broadcasting technology provider for HD fibre technology for its on-field system.
