Indotel presents digital terrestrial TV

Yesterday, the Dominican Institute of Telecommunications (Indotel) presented the project to implement Digital Terrestrial Television (TTD), which will improve the quality of the free television signal in the country.

Together with Color Vision channel 9, it also showed the first live broadcast of digital television in the country.

The president of the Board of Directors of Indotel, Nelson Arroyo, said that this is the first step for the change from analog to the digitization of television in the country.

This project is part of the total investment of US$30 million for the transition process to digital TV. Within these, the tender was opened to purchase 450,000 digital signal converter boxes donated to vulnerable households in the country of the Superate program. Thus ensuring access to this technology.

Arroyo stressed that they expect this project to be fully implemented by the end of the year. He said that users with digital television would have high-definition transmission of images and optimal sound.

As long as the companies operated with fewer cases.
