📣 @France.tv is continuing its ST 2110 migration with Imagine Communications’ new SNP-XS, becoming the first broadcaster to deploy the latest addition to the SNP lineup.
The deployment will help interconnect regional stations with two Paris-area data centers, supporting high-quality, low-latency media exchange across locations and delivering uncompressed ST 2110 to France 3 regional stations.
