Communication Video Engineering (CVE) has been appointed by broadcast systems manufacturer BroaMan as new distribution partner for Italy.

With its HQ in Milan, and a branch office in Rome, CVE brings nearly 40 years’ experience in the design, implementation and support of advanced technical solutions for broadcast and telecommunications organisations. In addition to its operations in Italy, the company also has a subsidiary office in Dubai.

‘We had been looking for a fibre solution to handle point to multipoint,’ comments CEO, Luca Catalano. ‘Our tech team undertook research which is how we got to know BroaMan.’

Munich-based BroaMan manufactures advanced solutions, which use a fibre infrastructure to integrate video, audio, IP, intercom and other data on a redundant low latency system. As well as broadcasters, these interfaces targeted production companies, sport facilities, professional A/V integrators requiring SD/HD/3G video transport or routing.

CVE can propose broadcasting solutions to customers in full ‘Glass-2-Glass’ mode. ‘In other words we create systems and solutions to enable production, distribution and delivery of live and on-demand media to viewers of TV services,’ Catalano says. ‘BroaMan gives us the ability to have a point-to-multipoint over dark fibre, using the core fibre matrix that sits in the middle of the star topology fibre network.’

CVE is looking forward to introducing the new BroaMan technology to its clients, based on the company’s vast experience, and integrating these fibre solutions into their projects. ‘We see great potential not only among the large broadcasters but also applications in the non-broadcast markets, such as military,’ says the CEO.

‘We look forward to meeting many important broadcast customers from Italy during IBC, and have the opportunity to deliver the most reliable and future-proof fibre solution on the market,’ says BroaMan Sales Distribution representative, Dawid Somló.
