An interview from the 2014 International Broadcasting Convention in Amsterdam with Halid Hatic of Bexel. Bexel, a division of The Vitec Group, provides broadcast services to key markets including national and global sporting events, studio productions, reality television, awards shows, and press events. In this interview Halid talks with us about Bexel Worldwide Services Division.

Bexel, a unit of the Vitec Group’s Services Division and a leading worldwide provider of broadcast services and solutions, recently completed a major inventory upgrade to support the company’s extensive installations for both the Spanish and English-speaking U.S. rights holders at the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™. The $13 million investment increases Bexel’s service offering of products in several key areas, including camera systems, switchers and routers, and servers. The significant investment is strategically aligned to support Bexel’s continuing expansion into the major global sporting event sector.

Bexel has made a significant investment in the expansion of its camera inventory. Over 50 new camera systems were purchased to support Bexel’s increased servicing of global sports arenas. Thirty Grass Valley LDX 80 Compact cameras and 20 Sony HDC-2400 cameras have been added to the Bexel roster. All 50 camera chains were used in Brazil.

In addition to the cameras, Bexel bought more than 50 supporting lenses, ranging from wide-angle lenses to Cannon XJ95x and Fujinon XA99x8.4 super-telephoto lenses. The company’s inventory of camera support equipment has also grown, including new Vinten Vector 75 Pan and Tilt Heads and Sachtler tripods.
