Jain TV Group firm Noida Software Technology Park (NSTPL) has signed a multi-transponder agreement for C-band capacity on Intelsat 902 at 62 degree East, to launch the Headend in the Sky (HITS) project.
The company will utilize this capacity to create a white label, turnkey channel package that can be received and distributed by MSOs and local cable operators throughout the country.
NSTPL's HITS platform called JAINHITS will support India's goal of changing television networks from analogue to digital system, according to JK Jain, Group Chairman.
As per the Cable TV amendment Act 2011, the entire distribution of TV signals on cable TV networks shall only be permitted in the digital mode.
HITS can implement DAS (Digital Access System) in one stroke all over India, meeting all the regulatory and licensing requirements at the same time. HITS technology with the help of Subscriber Management System (SMS) and Conditional Access System (CAS) can monitor and control all accounting, billing and cable distribution related business functions of all the subscribers all over the country.
HITS can provide vital Statistics like subscriber numbers to broadcasters, tax authorities, all partners in the cable distribution chain and all other interested parties, accurately and transparently. Subscribers shall benefit from itemized billing details so that they will be charged only for the channels that they wish to subscribe.
HITS will help operator in many other ways also. A HITS operator sets up a Super Headend with capacity to serve all the partnering cable operators who need not put up expensive Digital Headend to meet regulatory, licensing and commercial requirements of running this business of distributing satellite TV channels.
Cable networks who are willing to connect and collaborate with HITS operator can meet the statutory requirements of Quality Of Service parameters as set by TRAI without risking big investments and without losing their cable networks ownership and clients.
