Net Insight & Ericsson to offer end-to-end media contribution solutions to broadcast industry

Stockholm, Sweden - Net Insight, the leading provider in media transport and resource scheduling, has announced a strategic partnership with Ericsson to offer broadcasters a range of end-to-end video processing solutions based on Net Insight and Ericsson media contribution products and services.
