Digital Terrestrial Television

Change is afoot in television broadcasting. Traditional analogue technology is heading south. Set to take its place, Digital Terrestrial Television (or DVB T) is opening up a whole new world in digital TV viewing.

So what should we expect from Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT)? Think high definition picture and sound quality, and more high quality channels.

With a long history in broadcasting and engineering expertise, Kordia’s role in the implementation of New Zealand’s digital TV broadcasting platform has been crucial – and hugely successful.

We’re the team selected by the Freeview broadcasters to get their free-to-air TV platform underway. And we’re the team that, on a daily basis, ensures your TV viewing remains picture-perfect.

Deployed in 2008, New Zealand’s new DTT services are now broadcast from 54 transmitters across 18 sites. Currently, these services reach approximately 75% of the total New Zealand population.

Those areas that aren’t currently covered by terrestrial digital television are supported by our Direct to Home Satellite; a service that ensures all Kiwis can enjoy digital TV coverage.
