With its access to multiple power supplies, state of the art construction and the potential to manage content remotely, our Broadcast Centre in West London provides the ultimate disaster recovery solution.
Media companies are heavily reliant on the successful transmission of their programmes. Should a major incident happen (be it a terrorist act, flood, fire or someone drilling through the power supply), it’s critical that they have a disaster recovery (DR) plan to keep their channels on air. It’s not simply about maintaining commercial revenues, it’s about providing viewers with a dependable service.
So when one of the UK’s terrestrial channels wanted to upgrade its existing DR options in 2005, we found the nearest phone booth and donned our trusty cape. With access to multiple power supplies, state–of–the–art construction and the potential to manage content remotely, our Broadcast Centre in West London not only provides a home fit for superheroes but also the ultimate safety net for playout operation. It’s the digital equivalent of a ‘belt and braces’ solution.
With the executives now able to sleep at night, they turned their thoughts to playout options for their digital channels. Impressed by the service they’d received on the main channel, they decided to award us the business. From disaster to triumph – any superhero would be proud.
