Austrian Broadcaster ORS Selects DEV Matrix Solution ARCHIMEDES to Refurbish Their Switching Technology 20 January 2016

FRIEDBERG, Germany -- In support of ORS to meet their continuously growing coverage and capacity demands, DEV Systemtechnik recommended ARCHIMEDES RF Matrix Switch, a solution which needs less rack space and significantly lower power consumption and has superior RF performance.

The capabilities and flexibility of DEV's switching solution ARCHIMEDES define the next generation of L-band Matrix Switching Systems with the concept to expand the broadcasting facilities while reducing expenses for infrastructure and make broadcasters flexible for future needs due to modular design.

Peter Knorr, Manager DVB Systems of ORS, says: When I visited the DEV stand at IBC 2014 and saw ARCHIMEDES with all its performance and features it was clear to me that this RF Matrix Switch Solution will be the product of choice to replace the old switching solution. It is much more flexible and uses state-of-the-art technology to support ORS' future requirements. The decision was easy as we have had good experience with DEV products.
