Pacific Television Center (PacTV), a Los Angeles-based independent global transmission and production company, prepares for the groundbreaking of PacTV Londons new facility in the Silicon Roundabout. With ten years of London transmissions, production, and broadcast management behind it, the new facility provides a new vision for television in the 21st Century. The veteran broadcast professionals will implement new upgraded services in London, with a heavy focus on the management of live content as well as disaster recovery.
"From the doors to the walls to the screens, we are designing the London facility to manage and monitor live content and are implementing ways to back it all up to make sure we keep customers up and running in the event of a major disruption, says Andrew Nealon, Director Sales and Strategy Europe, at PacTV London. As broadcast professionals specializing in live delivery of content, we want to help our customers stay on the airno matter what.
Stability and accessibility are essential parts of this upgraded design plan. After listening to its customers specific requirements over the years, PacTV London knows that all clients are different. That being said, in the new London facility, the PacTV team will offer bespoke service solutions on an individual client basis, welcoming its customers to discuss their specific requirements with the team, as needed.
While our new location will be chock-full of improved offerings upon its opening, we are ready, willing and eager to add on innovations as our customers need them, adds Nealon. Ensuring our customers feel comfortable with and confident in trusting us to store and distribute their content is important to us.
PacTVs London new home will double the size of the original location at 4,000 square feet, and will represent the cutting-edge of broadcast technology. The entire facility will be fully 3G-capable and will also house two HD studios, 20 racks of collocation space, a full master control room (MCR), all staffed by experienced broadcast professionals 24/7/365. In addition, PacTV London has incorporated the following to its new facility plans:
Power Mains, UPS and On-Site Generator

Server Location Services Remote Data Storage and Management
Direct Connectivity to Third Party Uplink Sites
On premises in City Satellite Downlink Dish Farm - providing Downlinks on Demand expanding our innovative and popular service already available at PacTV Los Angeles
PacTV Londons new facility is located in the heart of Londons popular Tech City in EC1, also known as the Silicon Roundabout, and is slated to open in June 2015.
