YOL TV Appoints MX1 As Distribution Service Provider

Turkish-language channel YOL TV has appointed MX1 as its distribution service provider.

MX1 is delivering the channel via an SES satellite and providing the satellite uplink. YOL TV broadcasts from its studio in Cologne, Germany, and transfers the transmission signal via an IP connection directly to MX1.

The free-to-air broadcaster's programs are now accessible to a much larger audience through the partnership with SES and MX1. YOL TV content is available via satellite only at Astra 19.2 Degrees East and can be received in Turkish-speaking households across Europe.

YOL TV broadcasts predominantly Turkish-language programming, which is also distributed online, focusing on popular political and cultural topics in Turkey, Germany, and the world.

"We welcome YOL TV as a new partner and are pleased that we can help the channel reach a more expansive range of 118 million TV households across Germany and Europe," said Christoph Mühleib, Managing Director Astra Deutschland, responsible for marketing and sales of Astra and MX1 in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

"The new partnership with MX1 optimises the way we deliver content to our audiences," said Veli Aydin, managing director at YOL TV. "Through satellite broadcasting with MX1, our program reaches more viewers than ever before, including those in our core target audience."
