Athens Olympic Games aftermaths and picture album
Few people remembers now the fantastic Olympic games that took place many moons back in Athens, Greece. We at PROMAX have recently had the opportunity to learn a lot about what was going on behind the curtains during the preparations for the event. Especially with regards to the complex television distribution system that was designed and constructed to deliver live images of the games to the international media.
The ATHOC (Athens Olympic Committee) required all the TV outlets installed for the international press, radio, television and news agencies to be certified before commissioning. Following is a set of interesting data and pictures.

- AOB (Athens Olympic Broadcasting), provided local feed in the journalists desks area, from a number of cameras, in all athletics Venues. It was more than 2.000 outlets in 33 Venues.
