IDX Open FIFA World Cup 2010 Service Centre

IDX Technology, manufacturer of broadcast power products, will be opening a sales and service centre in South Afica for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.  The centre will be based in Johannesburg at the specialist facility run by technology service provider Zimele Broadcast Services.  The centre has been set up to offer IDX product sales, service and technical support to all the broadcasters, news crews and freelance camera operators that will be covering the tournament. 

The centre will be open from 1st June until 11th July.  Rob Waters, Sales Director for IDX Technology, said "Cameramen and other members of the production team will rely heavily on their battery systems during the World Cup, capturing all breaking news stories 24 hours a day as the tournament unfolds.  However well prepared broadcasters will be for the event, over 31 days of competition there may be occasions when power equipment requires attention or extra batteries need to be purchased locally."

The centre will be located in Johannesburg at the following address:
