MUMBAI: In an agreement, the Measat Satellite Systems Sdn. Bhd. has decided to support Centrin TV’s direct-to-home (DTH) service in Indonesia.

Under the agreement, which includes PT Patra Telekomunikasi Indonesia as a local partner, Measat will provide Ku- band capacity on the Measat-3a satellite for the platform.

Centrin TV is a new DTH operator serving the Indonesian Pay TV market focusing on bringing family-orientated entertainment to its subscribers. It offers several basic packages and add-on packages including channels like Disney, Nickelodeon, Universal, HBO, CNN International and Discovery.


Said Measat senior director, sales and marketing Yau Chyong Lim, “Measat is delighted to have Centrin TV as a core custmer on our Measat-3/3a DTH platform. Centrin TV is the second Indonesian Pay TV provider to join our 91.5°E DTH neighbourhood.”

The Measat-3 and Measat-3a satellites, co-located at the 91.5°E orbital slot, currently support five DTH platforms across India, Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia.

The 91.5°E satellite neighbourhood will be further strengthened in 2013 with the launch of the 48 Ku- Band transponder Measat-3b satellite, designed to provide growth capacity and in-orbit redundancy for DTH customers across South and South East Asia.

“With the inclusion of Centrin TV, Measat’s DTH neighbourhood at 91.5°E now supports six DTH platforms across Asia, making it the preferred slot for DTH platforms in the region,” added Yau.
