W4 provides high-power coverage for Eastern Europe and Africa for services including television, radio, multimedia and Internet access.
19 channels provide high-power broadcast coverage from Central Europe to Siberia. Several of these channels are currently used by some of the largest direct-to-home digital TV packages in the CIS, such as NTV Plus and Poverkhnost.
W4 also covers sub-Saharan Africa through a fixed coverage, as well as Nigeria and neighbouring countries via a high-power spotbeam. Six channels are connected to each of these beams. The satellite’s design allows transmission from the steerable coverage to the African coverage and vice versa, permitting, for example, simultaneous broadcasting to both coverages.
