WATERLOO — CBC/Radio-Canada has renewed its agreement with broadcast video transport specialist Dejero as its primary field contribution solutions provider.
As part of this renewed multi-year agreement, announced Wednesday, Dejero will help CBC with its transition to IP-based infrastructure.
CBC is currently undertaking a major project to relocate the public broadcaster’s French services headquarters to the all-IP Maison de Radio-Canada (MRC) broadcast centre in Montreal, the release says. Upon completion later this year, the new SMPTE ST 2110-compliant MRC will be one of the most advanced, state-of-the-art IP broadcast facilities in the world, supporting CBC’s multiplatform and ever-increasing digital strategy.
As part of the renewed agreement, Dejero is providing CBC with its WayPoint 204 SMPTE ST 2110 receivers, EnGo 260 mobile transmitters, rack-mounted PathWay transmitters, and the LivePlus mobile app for iOS and Android devices across the network. Dejero is also providing CBC with connectivity and cloud-management services.
“We are thrilled to have been re-selected as the field contribution technology partner of CBC/Radio-Canada, a close relationship we have cultivated for over a decade,” said Bogdan Frusina, founder of Dejero. “We look forward to continuing our support of CBC/Radio-Canada as it transitions to IP workflows and completes its ground-breaking project in Montreal.”
