CNN contracts NTL for trans-Atlantic digital link

NTL has announced a multi-million pound sterling, five- year deal with Turner Broadcasting Systems Inc. (TBS) to provide contribution feeds from CNN's European Production Centre in London to the network's headquarters in Atlanta,
Georgia.

CNN will replace its existing analogue link on Intelsat 601 with multiple digital feeds using MPEG-2 technology.

The new service will commence in May, enabling the London Production Centre to send news items to Atlanta for fast compilation and insertion into CNN's domestic and international programmes for redistribution around the world.

NTL currently uplinks TBS's European news and entertainment services on a common digital multiplex to Astra 1E as part of an eight-year deal announced last September, as well as providing other distribution services on the Astra 1C satellite.
