AsiaSat offers one-stop satellite turnaround services through MCPC-DVB platforms on AsiaSat 2 using the facilities offered by partners in Cyprus and Israel.

Customers on the MCPC platforms are able to transmit their signals, whether it's video, audio, data or IP based services, at full power of the transponder from a single uplink but only pay for a fraction of the cost of a transponder. The one-stop service includes receiving downlink signals from Middle Eastern and European satellites such as Sirius, Hotbird, Arabsat, Nilesat, Intelsat and then turnaround and uplink the signals onto AsiaSat 2 in C-band.

Other unique benefits include:

Excellent Ground Penetration - instantaneous access to numerous cable operators, rebroadcasters, embassies, hotels and individual home viewers and listeners in the region
 
European and Middle Eastern Channel Neighbourhood - strong neighbourhood with more than 20 television channels and 30 radio channels from Europe and the Middle East
 
Exceptional C-band Coverage - stretches from Turkey and Egypt to Australia and New Zealand including more than 50 countries and regions across the Asia Pacific
