ASIxpress^TM is an innovator in global video transmission solutions. With ASIxpress, news feeds, entertainment programming and live one- and two-way events can be conducted at nearly light speed, eliminating multiple satellite hops. Establishing an international ASI 60Mbps connection is as easy as making a local phone call. One flat monthly fee gives you a dedicated port on the network that allows you to send traffic at 60Mbps to any or all ports on the network worldwide. There are no switching charges, no connection charges, no PGAD (multicast) fees and the circuits are bi-directional.

ASIxpress's innovative packet-based platform provides the high-quality video and immediate access to feeds that are essential for newsgathering organizations, particularly international operations. Breaking news can be transmitted from almost any point around the globe with no time wasted arranging additional connections with their associated fees. Access is immediate and completely customer-controlled.

Before as many as 500 channels can be beamed to rooftop receive dishes, local, national and international content must be gathered. ASIxpress is a great option for "backhauling" that content to key distribution sites.

Flexible aggregation of content is key to delivering the variety of program packages customers demand. ASIxpress provides a means to gather content, whether 200 programs at a time or one, over flexible circuits from key locations where content is created.

When video quality preservation and speed of delivery count, ASIxpress provides a global contribution and aggregation solution that supports up to 216 Mbps DVB-ASI among connected cities. Content creators and post-production houses have a near light-speed connection among key sites.
