ATLANTA, GA - The rollout of SISAL Sport Italia's new video horse racing network
is underway across Italy using Scientific-Atlanta's PowerVu(r) MPEG-2/DVB digi-
tal video compression system for high-quality, secure delivery of programming and
data services.
The network, with over 1000 sites already installed, is expected to grow to 3500
sites by October 1997. SISAL Sport Italia anticipates expanding the PowerVu 
system to include a network of 5000 betting parlor, lounge, and other leisure estab-
blishments when it is fully implemented.
"The PowerVu system's ability to deliver the security we require for this type of 
operation was paramount in our selection of Scientific-Atlanta's equipment," said
Paolo Magolati, director of satellite services at SISAL Sport Italia. "The significance
of the financial risks and rewards for undertaking such as this require that we imple-
ment to most secure system available. Scientific-Atlanta's decades of security and
conditional access experience enabled us to choose their products with a maximum
degree of confidence."
Telecom Italia/Nuova Telespazio will provide uplink, downlink and earth station servi-
ces for the network which will be based in Lucca, Italy.
