Eurochannel upgrades to HD at Eutelsat 16° East

October 16, 2017 12.36 Europe/London By Robert Briel

MIPCOM 2017 – CANNES. Eurochannel, the international channel dedicated to European films and series, is upgrading from Standard to High Definition with Eutelsat.

Already a direct customer of Eutelsat for the last five years, the channel is now expanding its capacity on the high-power Eutelsat 16A satellite to launch its HD version for European viewers.

Eutelsat 16A is positioned at Eutelsat’s 16 degrees East key neighbourhood, a preferred location for TV distribution to terrestrial networks across Europe, from Reykjavik to Moscow and Tenerife to Tbilisi.

Eurochannel is currently received by more than 70 cable and IP operators in 17 countries across Europe and will leverage Eutelsat 16A’s reach to reinforce its European distribution that recently extended to Russia, Lithuania and Croatia. The upgraded HD channel will be uplinked from Bosnia via Eutelsat’s partner teleport “Team:Media”.

Eurochannel is a television channel dedicated to showing the diversity of European culture through films and series, as well as content featuring European fashion events, arts and destinations.
