CNN-IBN and Turner International deploy Snell & Wilcox IQ Modular

CNN-IBN, a news and information channel being launched in India by TV18 Group Company's Global Broadcast News (GBN) and Turner International, has deployed Snell & Wilcox's IQ Modular products for an easily reconfigurable and scalable broadcast infrastructure backbone.
Television Eighteen India (TV18) is India's premier news broadcaster and the owner of CNBC TV18. The new CNN-IBN service will build upon TV18's newsgathering experience and CNN's extensive global news network to provide audiences with business and consumer news.
"Whenever we implement a new project, we are under tight deadlines, and we need reliable product and manufacturers to honour our tight delivery schedules," said Sanjay Sharma, TV18 Vice President of Operations. "Snell & Wilcox has always come through for us, and its large range of IQ Modular systems provides us the reliability and efficiency we need for our daily operations. We have been using Snell & Wilcox products over the past 10 years, and it is the first company we approached when we planned to expand our offerings to include CNN-IBN."
The TV18 installation consists of a wide variety of Snell & Wilcox IQ Modular products, including distribution amplifiers, audio analogue-to-digital and digital-to-analogue converters, synchronisers, and time-base correctors, all of which will be intelligently linked through the Snell & Wilcox RollCall control and monitoring system.
Snell & Wilcox's IQ Modular infrastructure system provides more than 300 intelligent component building blocks with which to construct any kind of broadcast facility. The convenience and flexibility of the Snell & Wilcox broadcast infrastructure range has made it very popular in studios throughout India, including at TV Today Network, Star News, ZeeTV, Eenadu TV, and NDTV.
