Signal
We receive and deliver TV signals in the highest quality.
Thanks to our own signal receiving station, we receive and distribute hundreds of TV channels from all over the world.
No headend of your own
You receive the signals fully processed from our receiving stations. Operation, maintenance and renewal are our responsibility.
Highly available
Our receiving stations are monitored around the clock. We obtain most channels from two geographically independent sources.
TV pioneer
In business since 1998, and in 2004 the first in Switzerland to offer real-time TV streaming over the internet.
Flexible integration
We deliver via IP with a 1G or 10G interface or as DVB.
Predictable costs
Billing is per channel or by concurrent sessions, depending on whether you use the signal as your primary feed or as a backup.
Operated in Switzerland
Our receiving stations are located at several sites in Switzerland.

Use cases
I have a cable or IP network and need signals
My own infrastructure can transmit IP or DVB signals, but I don’t have my own signal receiving station. That’s why I want to receive signals via IP.
Our solution
We deliver all signals to you via IP (1G or 10G interface). Optionally, we offer the signals not only in raw format (as from the source) but also as transcoded IP streams.
I need a backup signal / replacement signal
I already have all the signals, but I want additional security (redundancy) in case the primary signal fails.
Our solution
We deliver our signals to you as a backup. You only use them if your primary signal fails.
I want to obtain individual channels
As I already have my own headend but am missing a few channels, I want to obtain them simply and easily.
Our solution
Choose what you want and put together your own individual channel list.
I want to replace my headend
My signal receiving station is getting old, needs to be renewed or simply isn’t cost-effective. That’s why I want to replace it.
Our solution
Our complete channel range is a cost-effective alternative. We deliver everything you need via IP. Optionally, the signals can also be prepared as DVB streams.
I have neither a headend nor an app for distribution
I want to offer TV to my customers, but I have neither the hardware nor the know-how or resources to operate a headend and my own apps.
Our solution
With TV as a Service, we deliver signals, platform and apps in your branding from a single source.
Transcoding
Signals in the right format for every platform.
We convert the signals into profiles from 320x180 to 1920x1080, with constant or adaptive bitrate. You use one or more profiles at the same time, for example for set-top boxes, apps and web, and don’t need your own encoding infrastructure for it.
