๐ค Industry rallies to help victims of Express-AT1 satellite failure
The major failure of the Express-AT1 satellite on March 4 left thousands in Siberia and the Russian Far East without TV signals. The market has united to restore service to households.
Key restoration updates
Medialogistika (MSK-IX) has shifted dozens of channels to terrestrial delivery. For existing partners, adding new channels takes just 2 minutes.
Orion Group has activated a backup satellite, Express-AM5 (140ยฐE). The operator has launched a quick migration program for Telekarta subscribers, covering equipment costs.
NTV-Plus quickly resumed broadcasting in Siberia by relocating signals to Yamal-402. Up to 60 channels are now available there.
Sinterra Media has opened access to its media network in the capitals of Siberian and Far Eastern regions.
Experts emphasize that the top priority right now is not competition, but ensuring uninterrupted service for consumers.
Due to the accident on the Express-AT1 satellite, operators in the Far East can receive TV channel signals free of charge for three months from Medialogistika by ordering them through the Mediabaza platform.
