Introduction to KA-SAT Page - 4 www.skylogic.com
The Eutelsat “KA - SAT” Satellite • Launched End of December 2010 • Operational in May 2011 • Orbital position: 9°E • Frequency band: Ka Page - 5 www.skylogic.com
Multispot Ka-Band Coverage • Coverage: 82 beams • Full European Coverage • Total capacity: 70 Gbps (up to 475Mbps per Spot) Page - 6 www.skylogic.com
The KA-SAT main Target KA-SAT @ 9 ° East • An integrated system for the provision of Broadband Internet Connectivity to residential users via bidirectional affrodable User Terminals Tooway™ Kit Page - 7 www.skylogic.com
Multispot Ka-Band Coverage 82 Beams 4 Colours = 4 Freq/Pol Slots repeated all over coverage Frequencies are reused 20 times • Coverage: 82 beams • Full European Coverage • Total capacity: 70 Gbps (up to 475Mbps per Spot) Page - 8 www.skylogic.com
A closer look to a Beam Each Single Beam is fed via KA-SAT with ~250 MHz of Bandwidth (called also “FWD” Capacity) 19,7 – 20,2 GHz FWD ~250 MHz Page - 9 www.skylogic.com
A closer look to a Beam Each Single Beam is fed via KA-SAT with ~250 MHz of Bandwidth (called also “FWD” Capacity) Terminals within a Beam RTN have available ~250 MHz of “ RTN ” Capacity for 29,5 – 30 GHz ~250 MHz transmitting back to KA- SAT There are 82 Beams from KA-SAT. As each one is fed with ~250 MHz of bandwidth, it comes that KA-SAT Satellite must be fed with 82 x 250 MHz ~ 20 GHz (!) Page - 10 www.skylogic.com
How is it possible to Feed KA-SAT with 20 GHz of Info? • It is possible only reusing more than one time the same Slot of Frequency (example: 10 times the same slot of 2 GHz) Page - 11 www.skylogic.com

News Gathering via Satellite and the IP Revolution: why is KA-SAT so innovative for SNG? Page - 17 www.skylogic.com
OU Data Gathering: Ka Advantages • 1st Consideration: EFP (Electronic Field Production) equipment are becoming cheaper and cheaper (they have become already, actually…) ~35-80 k € ~3-8 k € Page - 18 www.skylogic.com
OU Data Gathering: Ka Advantages • 2nd Consideration: The EFP/ENG WorkFlow has moved from Tape to Memory-Card with - again - significant reductions in cost and a seamless integration into IP networks Page - 19 www.skylogic.com
OU Data Gathering: Ka Advantages • Result: EFP production requires today a very limited investment and is seamlessly integrated into IP Networks; EFP systems can today be deployed in large volumes by Broadcasters due to their improved affordability Light + + + = Cheap + IP • So, Broadcasters are looking for Cheap and Light systems, providing IP connectivity, as an ideal complement of today’s EFP System for News Gathering Page - 20 www.skylogic.com
The Concept to its extremes... ( + ) • The Ideal Complement of the “Extremely Light” Digital Workflow • An highly portable, light, compact terminal, IP native, performant for LIVE Video and FILE Push Page - 21 www.skylogic.com
Characteristics of NewsSpotter • easy to transport (backpack possible) Light • easy to manage Performant • perfect for most applications (also HD) (up to 20 Mbit) High • perfect for Occasional Use Availability IP • perfect integration into IP workflows Perfect for OU Newsgathering Page - 22 www.skylogic.com
Contribution Via KA-SAT: How does it work? Page - 23 www.skylogic.com
In a nutshell … • NewsSpotter uses professional grade SB2 Terminals for performing Video Contribution from “ Crews on Field ” to Broadcaster ’ s MCR Page - 24 www.skylogic.com
