Orange will use Eutelsat's HOT BIRD and ATLANTIC BIRD 3 satellites to broadcast the TV component of its triple play offer to households not accessible via ADSL. Orange will supply a new decoder interfacing with its livebox to enable the satellite-delivered Orange TV signal to be bundled with Internet access and telephony.
Satellite broadcasting of Orange TV's programmes will be launched simultaneously in summer 2008 from Eutelsat's HOT BIRD and ATLANTIC BIRD 3 satellites located at 13 degrees East and 5 degrees West respectively. In terms of the French market, these two neighbourhoods already reach an installed base of 4.8 million DTH antennas.
