Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) has turned to Vislink Technologies to conduct a significant upgrade of its Kuala Lumpur Tower facilities. The USD$1 million project features the deployment of Vislink’s groundbreaking 4K Ultra HD (UHD) portable IP-based transmission solution, incorporating the Quantum Encoder and high-speed, bi-directional IP links.

This state-of-the-art setup will empower RTM to deliver pristine 4K UHD video from remote locations across Kuala Lumpur, ensuring a real-time experience for live media broadcasts across the broadcaster’s nationwide TV channels.

Moreover, this modular, scalable solution is designed to support RTM’s future migration to IP-based workflows and higher resolutions, positioning RTM at the forefront of next-generation broadcasting standards.

“Our collaboration with Vislink represents a strategic step forward in our commitment to delivering high-quality, real-time content to our viewers nationwide,” said an RTM spokesperson.

“Vislink’s advanced technology aligns perfectly with our vision for the future of media, allowing us to expand our capabilities and enhance the viewing experience for our audiences. We’re excited about the possibilities this partnership brings as we continue to innovate and grow in the fast-evolving media landscape.”

Mickey Miller, CEO, Vislink, added, “By leveraging our expertise in IP and software-driven infrastructure, we’re enabling media organisations around the world to redefine the boundaries of live content production.

“The Asia-Pacific region remains a dynamic growth area for us, and we are proud to support RTM’s mission to enhance the media experience for their audiences.”
