ARISTON BROADCAST & TELECOM SOLUTIONS SA announces the integration of RED. The project includes the designing, supply and installation of equipment.

RED has a general program, with particular emphasis on news. It is the first tapeless TV station (of this size), in Greece. RED widely uses solutions from VSN (ingest, MAM, Newsroom Automation & Playout, TX Playout) and it is the first station that use exclusively APPLE platform for editing and graphics. The baseband section of the TV station is based on EVERTZ (redundant router XENON, QMC-mcs , SPG, 2MULTIVIEWERS), interfaces come from CRYSTAL VISION and studio equipment from SONY (DFS-800 & DXC-55).

Commenting, the Executive Director of the station Mr. Anthony Martinis said: “We wanted to create a 24-hour channel broadcasting, covering the region of the Dodecanese and not just Rhodes. The operation was very difficult especially because of region’s geographical particularities. We paid attention to news, both at global level (with subscription to REUTERS) and also with local correspondents in most islands and in Athens. We have chosen the wide use of automations to minimize operational costs, while simultaneously increasing flexibility. For these reasons we choose well-established manufacturers (EVERTZ, SONY, VSN) and we trusted in a company that could bring out successfully not only the integration but also the monitoring and maintenance of the system.”
