ACOM Comunicacoes, the leading Digital MMDS system operator in Brazil, has just installed a new Cable AML 1000 Watt broadband transmitter in Manaus, to improve its digital MMDS service in this city.

ACOM has other 3 digital systems in operation in Brazil. The new system in Manaus is designed to provide service in an area of over 20 Km radius with more than 200,000 TV households.

Cable AML is also providing a number of two-way repeaters, which will enable ACOM to offer service in shadowed areas where there was no previous service available.

According to Mario de Paula, CEO of ACOM, “the Cable AML transmitter has made it possible to provide optimum coverage with a high quality product. We are very pleased with Cable AML’s technology and service and we plan to continue to use their products for the continued expansion of digital TV service we are planning in Brazil.”
