SES NEW SKIES can provide broadcasters and news programmers around the world with dedicated, full-time satellite transmission links for the back-haul of video footage of sports, news and entertainment for inclusion in their finished programs.

Current events require that broadcasters and news programmers have a steady supply of video footage to fill their news lineups. This translates into the need for a reliable, always-available transmission link for contribution feeds.

The excellent reliability of SES NEW SKIES' global satellite fleet and the company's extensive experience in serving the broadcast community has earned the trust of the most prestigious broadcasters around the world. For Example, the European Broadcasting Union, a group of 119 broadcasters from 80 countries, relies on SES NEW SKIES' NSS-7 and NSS-806 satellites and the company's Washington D.C. Mediaport for the delivery of contribution footage from the United States and Latin America to member broadcasters throughout Europe and the Middle East.

With NSS-6 at 95 degrees east--and the existing coverage of NSS-7--SES NEW SKIES is able to offer contribution links between the United States or Europe and anywhere in Asia, Africa or the Middle East, all with just one seamless turnaround at SES NEW SKIES' partner Mediaport in the Middle East.
