March 2, 2016

Spacecom, the operator of the AMOS satellite fleet, has announced that Nepal’s Dish Media Network has entered into another long-term contract adding more capacity to its current capacity on AMOS-4. Located at the 65°E prime orbital position, AMOS-4 is providing Dishhome with substantial satellite capacity to enable the DTH provider to add further SD and HD channels to expand its service.

Founded in 2009, Dish Media Network, is the only DTH operator with distribution covering all of Nepal. One of Nepal’s fastest-growing operators in the broadcast and transmission services industry for digital television channels, Dishhome’s capacity on AMOS-4 is contracted for the satellite’s lifetime.

Dish Media Network CEO Sudeep Acharya commented, “This agreement provides more bandwidth for our national network and enables Dishhome to boost the number of channels we offer to improve the viewing experience for customers. With the additional capacity from AMOS-4 we can further our strategic goals and strengthen our operations.”
