In Spring 2010, after a ten years long legal battle, Europa 7 finally got assigned a national terrestrial TV frequency (that is, a multiplex), able to cover 95% of Italy's population and 80% of the territory.

The DVB-T2 technology is comparable to the one used by the UK service company Freeview HD, which also has only one multiplex.

As for Freeview HD, bandwidth is dynamically allocated between channels, depending on the complexity of the images – with the aim of maintaining a consistent quality, rather than a specific bit rate; video for each channel can range between 3 Mb/s and 17 Mbit/s.
