Southern Cross Broadcasting Implements Digital Archival Solution For Advanced Editing

When Southern Cross Broadcasting (SCB), one of the continent's leading media companies, needed a robotic tape archive for a planned advanced editing and content management solution, they looked to their asset management vendor for a recommendation. Techtel Pty Ltd, Australia's leading broadcast system integrator recommended a Spectra Logic Spectra 20K.

"Spectra Logic's engineer-driven design leads to serviceability, reliability, and redundancy that makes them a clear choice for broadcast environments," reports Peter Chamberlain, Techtel's National Sales Manager. "Broadcasters are accustomed to the helical scan technology and servicing their own equipment. With the Spectra Logic design and the assisted self maintenance program SCB can save thousands each year in maintenance costs compared to other library vendors."
