Utilizing DEV Systemtechnik’s advanced optical and coaxial RF systems Qvest Media has planned and integrated WELT’s state of the art satellite infrastructure in the new WELT HQ in Berlin.
Qvest Media had been contracted to plan and install the new satellite infrastructure for WELT’s new broadcast and play-out center in Berlin. WELT (former N24) is Germany’s leading private news boradcaster providing services over cable, satellite, DVB-T2 and IPTV.
A key challenge was the integration of 3 existing motorized antennas from the existing distant site with the network in the new HQ consisting of new 7 Antennas in another location. All antennas together deliver 42 RF L-Band signals which are consolidated and controlled in the new broadcast center office in the heart of Berlin.
