SIS LIVE partners with Babcock

SIS LIVE, has signed an agreement with the media services arm of Babcock International Group (Babcock) to supply uplink services from their UK teleports.

The service commenced this month with SIS LIVE providing uplink facilities from their MediaCityUK teleport.  SIS LIVE already offers market-leading connectivity via fibre, satellite and microwave, complemented by its teleport and network operations centres (NOC) in Milton Keynes and MediaCityUK

John Bozza, commercial director, SIS LIVE, said: “SIS LIVE provides best in class solutions for many connectivity needs, giving broadcasters direct access to the global satellite market.

“We already have great experience of delivering critical distribution services for UK Sport and to bookmakers across the UK, Ireland and beyond, so working with Babcock to deliver uplinking capability was the next logical service to offer. We look forward to exploring further opportunities with Babcock.”
