Arab media giant relies on Telex Intercom systems

• The Dubai-based broadcasting corporation MBC Group has just invested in BTR-700 systems from Telex

Straubing, July, 2009 With nine channels and 90 million viewers worldwide, MBC is the leading provider of news and entertainment in the Middle East. To optimize communications in MBC’s headquarters in Dubai, the Group recently invested in BTR-700 RadioCom systems from Telex.The wireless intercom systems are being used by MBC’s two most important channels: MBC1, the region’s leading purveyor of family entertainment, and Al Arabiya News, the leading news channel in the Arab world. In each case, the wireless BTR-700 system facilitates communication between the floor manager and cameraman. Regional Sales Manager Ammar Fawzy comments: “The BTR- 700 is extremely reliable and has a long range – even in a complex building where the signals have to pass through a large number of intervening walls. These characteristics make the BTR-700 the perfect solution.”About the BTR-700The BTR-700 is a single-channel UHF synthesized wireless intercom base station with an A4M headset connector. It guarantees reliable communication of the highest quality. The base station provides full-duplex communication with up to four TR-700 frequency-agile belt packs.
