Arqiva delivers Hallmark UK

Broadcast services provider Arqiva has begun providing uplink and satellite capacity to Universal Networks International channel Hallmark UK.

Arqiva is providing backhaul from London’s Chiswick Park facility using diverse fibre to two of Arqiva’s POPs and then on to its Bedford Teleport. Here the channel is statistically multiplexed and uplinked onto Eutelsat’s Eurobird at 28.5° East for delivery to BSkyB’s pay-TV platform.
