Data link deal

The Bridge Networks has supplied New Zealand's National Broadcaster TVNZ with its fourth Advent SNG terminal. The 1.2 m Mantis satellite flyaway system is supplied with Vislink's 5000 series electronics satellite system.

The system is designed to send high-quality video and data from anywhere in the world and is rugged enough to stand up to travelling in rough terrain. Its compact size and lightweight design ensures it complies with IATA's airline check-on baggage requirements, enabling broadcasters to fly the equipment anywhere around the world, when required.

This order was one of the first to be issued to Vislink's News and Entertainment Division, which brings together the three manufacturing divisions of Vislink: Advent Communications into one business.
