| Since its inception in 1992, SunUp
has been at the forefront of digital technology as applied to television
broadcasting. In 1993, SunUp signed a development contract to implement
control software for the DIRECTV Castle Rock project, which was fully
operational within a year. Today, DIRECTV is a highly successful
digital satellite broadcasting system that has grown to over thirteen
million subscribers. In 1995, SunUp began developing a completely
integrated traffic and control system (TCS) with embedded asset management
for the DTH (Direct-to-Home) and Digital Cable industry. Two years
later, SunUp's TCS was a critical component in six DTH networks on
three continents. In 1997, Sony made an equity investment in the
company. Today, TCS is established as the industry leader for high
channel-count digital traffic and control systems.
Since 1995, SunUp has been installed as the backbone of two-thirds
of the world largest DTH operations. As a result, the company has
earned a strong reputation for supplying solutions to the world's
largest high channel-count operations. Each system is custom-configured
to offer a total content, service, resource, and workflow management
solution that can handle large amounts of content and hundreds
of channels, with the ability to support evolving business models
and new industry standards.
Since 2001, SunUp has applied its proven technology to the evolving
content distribution needs of the IPTV, Cable, Corporate, and e-Cinema
networks. SunUp has built on its expertise in real time delivery
networks to handle the large content ingest, preparation, and distribution
needs of on-demand and other content delivery networks and the
business processes that revolve around such networks. |
