It is now being carried by Arabsat on its 5C (at 20 degrees East) satellite using Globecast to provide the technical broadcast facilities. Arabsat 5C serves the complete African market.

This new broadcast of Canal Algérie is part of the commercial contract between Télédiffusion d’Algérie, the Algerian public TV and radio broadcasting operator and Globecast.
