DTVI’s PSIP Central Powers Mexico’s Grupo Imagen Television Network



Elgin, IL, November 9, 2016 – DTV Innovations LLC (DTVI) today announced that Teletec de Mexico S.A.P.I de C.V. and DTV Innovations have completed phase 1 deployment of DTVI’s PSIP Central for Imagen Television. With the completion of this deployment, PSIP Central is providing electronic program guide and critical channel information to all Grupo Imagen’s television transmitter sites located in the 40 most populous cities in Mexico.

"We chose DTV Innovations’ technology for Grupo Imagen Television broadcasting system due to their high level of efficiency and ease of use. DTV Innovations has been a Teletec partner for other projects and every time has proven to provide a robust solution along with leadership in technology," said Alfonso Vazquez, Commercial Director of Teletec.

PSIP Central provides every table that is required for a television tuner to identify and properly decode the stream so that the appropriate information is displayed on the television. PSIP Central greatly reduces operational and capital expense when compared to stand-alone PSIP implementations. Moreover, PSIP Central provides centralized control of PSIP insertion at geographically remote sites and is highly scalable making it ideal for larger implementations such as that of Grupo Imagen.

“Mexico has been an important and growing market for us. Teletec has been an excellent and technically savvy partner in this region,” said Benitius (Benny) Handjojo, CEO of DTV Innovations. “This is not our first PSIP System deployment in Mexico, but it is certainly our largest to date. With this initial phase complete, the team is now planning for the next phase of the project. Upon completion of the final phase, PSIP Central will manage electronic program guide insertion at nearly 200 Grupo Imagen TV stations.”
