Sinclair and ONE Media Technologies Host End-to-End NextGen TV Interoperability Event

BALTIMORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sinclair, Inc. and its subsidiary ONE Media Technologies, in collaboration with Pearl TV, are hosting more than 30 manufacturers and vendors at an end-to-end interoperability event taking place June 3-6 at Sinclair’s headquarters in Hunt Valley, Maryland.

Manufacturers, developers, and vendors representing all aspects of the broadcast air chain, including encoder manufacturers, transmitter manufacturers, receiver manufacturers, and others, are attending the event. Participants will bring products and systems to test their compatibility and identify and resolve interoperability issues. Resolving these issues before devices are deployed to consumers will save time and resources and is an important part of a successful transition to NextGen TV.

Mark Aitken, Sinclair’s Senior Vice President of Advanced Technology and President of ONE Media Technologies, said, “NextGen TV is the future of the broadcast television industry. Ensuring a successful transition to ATSC 3.0 by February 2028 in the top-55 markets and February 2030 in remaining markets will require working together with all elements of the broadcast ecosystem to ensure consumers are ready to receive our signals. We are proud to host this event bringing together so many of our partners to help bring broadcasting into the modern era with NextGen TV.”

Reporters interested in attending should contact Jason Kim (jkim@sbgtv.com or 410-891-3577).
