Serving Brazilian
DTH Providers
Large satellite TV operators with
branded reception equipment usually
outsource the actual procurement and
manufacturing of products such as satel-
lite antennas, LNBs, cables and receivers
to independent third-party companies.
All technical specifications are drawn up
by the providers, with external manufac-
turers being then responsible for deliv-
ering products that meet those precise
requirements. As far as the huge mar-
ket of Brazil is concerned, TELE System
has become the supplier of choice for all
major Brazilian pay TV operators. Such
a huge success could not be achieved
overnight, and to find out how TELE Sys-
tem has developed into such a dominant
market player we travelled to Jundiai.
This is where TELE System is renting
large warehouse facilities
in a very modern industrial
estate.
Marco Szili is the General
Manager of TELE System Elec-
tronic do Brasil, and he is our
first point of contact for learning
more about the company. “TELE
System was originally founded as a
manufacturer of satellite dishes in Italy,
back in 1989. By 1997 export of satel-
lite antennas to Brazil had reached vol-
umes that called for the establishment
of an affiliate branch in Sao Paulo, even
though at the time it only consisted of a
warehouse.” Things turned exciting from
there, beginning with in-house produc-
tion of satellite antennas in Brazil all the
way to then moving antenna production
to China and Malaysia.
Right from the very beginning TELE
System has always made a point of of-
fering full-scale systems as a one-stop-
provider. This is how the company even-
tually came into touch with the country’s
major pay TV providers, a development
that ultimately propelled TELE System
right into top position for this particular
market segment. General Manager Mar-
Marco Szili is the

Electronic do Brasil.

Both the individual

themselves come
from TELE System.
