The Broadcast Turnkey service is provided to broadcasters wanting their television signal to reach rebroadcast locations, very distant and/or remote from their main broadcast studio. These rebroadcast locations are over the air re-transmit sites, Cable TV systems, microwave re-transmit systems or a combination of all the above. These rebroadcast sites can be in relatively tight geographical areas (i.e. the Caribbean) or across the all of North and South America.

In these applications we can provide a total turn key solution which generally consists of Gulfcom taking a signal feed from the broadcaster and building, maintaining, and operating the respective satellite transmission systems to distribute the signal.

Our Bulk Satellite Transport service provides groups of Cable TV systems with customized sets of distant signals. When we get a large enough group of Cable systems interested in a specific group of distant signals, we will uplink and distribute these signals to the markets and communities requesting them.

At present our network transports a unique mix of 6 off air superstations. They include CBC-Canada, Global-Canada, City TV-Toronto, WWOR New York, WPIX New York and PBS WNET New York.

Given Gulfcoms and our customers' investments into large volume, high capacity networks, overlaying additional Data/IP traffic onto these networks is potentially very efficient, especially to and from remote markets.

Business Development: Amortizing the fixed costs of uplinks and space segment across a single customer can be a challenge. Gulfcoms unique experience and focus across several groups of remote systems allows it at times to develop additional applications. In this way the cost structure is amortized across several markets. We work closely with our clients to find additional applications for the networks we manage.

Gulfcom also provides third party affiliate relations and channel development to broadcasters and signal suppliers.
