SES Expands Partnership with Ateme for Sports and Live Events
SES will utilize Ateme’s TITAN encoders, multiplexers, and decoders for distribution of UHD content via its ground and satellite infrastructure
PARIS—Ateme, a global provider of video compression, delivery, and streaming solutions, says longtime partner SES is integrating its technology to improve and secure SES’s distribution network for broadcasting of sports and events content worldwide.
SES will utilize Ateme’s TITAN encoders, multiplexers, and decoders for distribution of UHD content via its ground and satellite infrastructure. Additionally, Ateme is integrating premium frame rate conversion with full motion compensation and supporting High Dynamic Range (HDR) in UHD for an enriched visual experience.
The combined solutions also utilize the BISS-CA encryption standard and receivers, integrating HDR conversion with HDR LUT (Look-Up-Table) conversion to facilitate the adoption of HDR technology. This will ensure reception of the highest quality video content with optimal picture clarity, smooth motion, and enhanced security measures, Ateme says.
"We are thrilled to expand our collaboration with Ateme to enhance our delivery workflow for major sporting events," said Michele Gosetti, Head of Media Sales France, Spain, Italy and Sports & Events at SES.

We are dedicated to proposing evolutions for future sporting events, ensuring enhanced security and performance for content distribution."
