October 06, 2020 Jordan Media City selects Imagine Communications for playout expansion
The expanded system was installed by JMC engineering team and commissioned jointly with Imagine Communications during Q2 of 2020.
Imagine Communications has upgraded its proven playout facilities at Jordan Media City (JMC) in Amman. JMC is a production and transmission centre in the Middle East, providing services to multiple broadcasters and service providers.
Imagine installed its first servers at JMC in 2004 and began the migration to high-definition (HD) channels in 2016. The latest expansion provides capabilities for 18 premium, full-functionality SD and HD channels.
Content delivery from ingest to on-air branding and playout is achieved using software-centric tools running on cost-efficient COTS hardware. The flexible, robust and readily scalable solution enables JMC to switch the 18 premium channels freely between SD and HD to meet demand.
The capacity was scaled through the deployment of five additional Nexio+ AMP playout servers, providing 30 bidirectional ports. In addition, JMC Nexio online shared storage, Platinum VX router and Selenio 6800+ modular processing were expanded to meet the additional demands.
The expansion project doubled the JMC facility existing 32TB of shared storage including intrinsic mirroring, with the additional disk space being integrated into the single server environment without interruption to operations. The result is high-performance, high-bandwidth core storage with the highest levels of digital asset protection.
The expanded system was installed by JMC engineering team and commissioned jointly with Imagine Communications during Q2 of 2020.
Commenting on the development, Radi Alkhas, CEO of JMC, said: Imagine Communications has been a key technology partner for as long as JMC has been in business and has developed a close understanding of our operations, so can proactively develop solutions with us as we grow. When we needed to get our new HD services on air quickly, Imagine was able to agree on the specification, deliver and commission the facility to our timescales ― even under the difficult conditions of the global pandemic.
Alkhas added: The open architecture and interoperability of Imagine Communications solutions ensure future expansions can be completed with minimal disruptions to our operation.

The World Teleport Association (WTA) today published its annual rankings for the Top Teleport Operators of 2019.
