Harris Corporation selected by Toronto’s Dome Productions

Harris Corporation has announced that its comprehensive Leitch HD conversion portfolio has been selected by Toronto’s Dome Productions for a new HD truck scheduled to be completed by April 2006.
The sale includes Harris’ Leitch X75 M-PATH multiple-path up/down/cross converter/synchronisers; a variety of modules in the Leitch NEO XHD series of modular HD up/down/cross converters; and the new Leitch 6800+ series of HD monitoring downconverters with the minimum delay option. The products will be controlled by NUCLEUS, a next-generation, user-configurable real-time control panel designed to centralise the operational control of processing, branding and routing products.
“Dome decided to go exclusively with Leitch conversion products for this truck since its HD products offer the most advanced design technology on the market at a competitive price,” said Curtis Skinner, manager of engineering services for Dome Productions. “As well, Dome has worked with Leitch for many years on numerous projects and has always been pleased with the high quality of service and support, a key deciding factor for us since this truck will be used to cover many high-profile sporting and entertainment events.”
