With the completion of the installation work in the Territorial Center of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, VAV Engineering completes the adaptation of the RTVE contribution system for the Canary Islands and other Territorial Centers.

The execution of this file has meant for the public television network an increase in the robustness of the infrastructure of its contribution system, adding redundancy to the network and incorporating new informative venues to this same system.

It is worth noting the complexity of the project given the geographical mobility throughout the Spanish territory and the fact that the technical work has had to be carried out without the production and emission systems ceasing to provide any type of service.

The system forms a distributed matrix capable of switching and routing the data exchange between all the Centers, data that transport different types of information interchangeably: video, audio, files, communications, etc…

We speak of a system capable of managing different types of data through one or more links between the different venues, said teams act as bandwidth managers with service guarantee and offer a medium, high definition transport system, flexible and of large capacity.
