Vision TV — the first licensed provider of digital satellite television in Ukraine.

 

In May 2007, Vision TV was the first operator in Ukraine’s history to receive a license as a satellite Provider of Program Services (NP series license № 0183 issued by the National Council of Ukraine on Television and Radio).

Since April 21, 2008, Ukrainian TV viewers are able to enjoy a wide variety of quality TV programming brought to them under the well-known Viasat brand.

Viasat in Ukraine has come to the market in response to significant pent-up demand of Ukrainian TV viewers for a quality television service that takes into account their diverse tastes and interests.

 

Today, Viasat subscribers can choose from more than 60 carefully selected Ukrainian, Russian and international TV channels of different genres in Russian and Ukrainian language.

Vision TV uses the latest technology (MPEG-4, DVB-S2), including a specially designed VIASAT satellite receiver for the first DTH platform in Ukraine, encrypted with the Videoguard CA system from NDS. The service is delivered by the Sirius 4 satellite, providing ideal cover for Ukraine.
