THE BRIEF

C2S delivered a fully integrated broadcast TV Complex for Ahadu TV, in Washington, D.C. and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This turnkey solution covered every stage of a TV station, from acquisition to transmission, ensuring high reliability and resilience.
At its core, the system uses a Cinegy platform for ingest, media asset management, and playout, seamlessly integrated with Cinegy NRCS to manage content from ENG crews, studios, and external sources. High-speed centralized storage supports efficient editing and audio post-production workflows.

The facility includes two production studios equipped with Sony broadcast cameras, Birddog PTZ units, and a Ross Carbonite vision switcher, enabling daily live shows and post-produced content. C2S also installed and commissioned all video, audio, control, and network systems, along with advanced studio lighting grids, cyclorama, and green screen for versatile production environments.
