EnGo mobile video transmitter and LivePlus App enable seamless live reporting from remote and high-congestion areas.
Major broadcasters across West Africa have relied on Dejero EnGo mobile video transmitters and LivePlus mobile apps to deliver uninterrupted live coverage of Ghana’s 2024 elections. Journalists reported from key locations, including Accra, Northern, Western and Ashanti regions, ensuring viewers received real-time updates despite connectivity challenges.
Leading Ghanaian broadcast facilities provider Bahamus Limited equipped top networks—including Channel One TV, Citi FM, GHOne TV, Agoo TV, Peace FM, OKAY FM and UTV Ghana—with Dejero’s cutting-edge technology. This ensured reliable transmission even in remote areas with weak network infrastructure.
Dorcas Koney, Commercial Manager at Bahamus Limited, said: “We received glowing feedback from our customers on how swift and seamless their live transmissions were using Dejero EnGos and mobile Apps. Many of these broadcasters were reporting from remote or high-traffic areas with unreliable connectivity. Dejero solutions eliminated those challenges, allowing them to focus on delivering real-time election updates without disruption.”
Bahamus Media deployed seven Dejero EnGo mobile transmitters, each utilising six SIM cards to blend multiple networks into a secure, high-bandwidth transmission path. Additionally, 30 Dejero LivePlus mobile app licenses enabled reporters to broadcast live video directly from their smartphones.
Both solutions leverage Dejero’s Smart Blending Technology, which combines multiple wired and wireless connections—including 3G/4G/5G, Wi-Fi, satellite and broadband—to maximise reliability and bandwidth. Many broadcasters also installed Dejero WayPoint receivers to ensure smooth video signal reconstruction and decoding in their control rooms.
In addition to enabling seamless election coverage, Dejero provided critical technical support. When a Bahamus Limited client experienced a modem failure, Dejero quickly dispatched a GateWay network aggregation device, restoring connectivity just in time for a live segment.
Koney explained: “Dejero came to the rescue by quickly dispatching a GateWay network aggregation device, getting the broadcaster back online just in time for a live segment. Their 24/7 support team gave us complete peace of mind, and we saved valuable resources since we didn’t need to be physically on-site for troubleshooting.”
The Ghana 2024 elections drew 18.8m voters, requiring broadcasters to deliver real-time updates under intense pressure.
“Dejero isn’t just a manufacturer—it’s a trusted brand backed by a dedicated team that truly cares,” Koney at Bahumus Limited concluded. “They helped us achieve our mission: providing a seamless, first-class service to our customers when it mattered most.”
