STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Net Insight, a leading provider of efficient and scalable transport solutions for media, IP and broadcast networks, today announced that the national telecommunications operator Antel in Uruguay has selected the companys Nimbra solution for a nationwide Digital Terrestrial TV (DTT) network.
