• Web browser interface - so accessible from anywhere on the network

IPTV Applications:

• Education
  Universities, colleges and schools use IPTV connected to their structured cabling system to deliver lectures and educational material, live or from tape or server to any number of screens in different classrooms throughout the building.
• Leisure and Sports Complexes
  IPTV can deliver a uniform corporate message and distribute breaking news and stock information to 24 screens or PC workstations simultaneously. Larger organisations can loop together hubs and expand the system for delivery to more users. There is no impact on the LAN
• Travel Terminals
  Locations such as airport lounges; train stations and ferry terminals are ideal for IPTV. Passengers will have a more comfortable wait if they are kept informed and entertained.

  Computer presentations, product promotions or messages can be delivered to a wide variety of display devices using IPTV. Hotels may want to welcome guests with messages on an eye-catching screens in the foyer, for example whilst the hospitality suite at a racecourse may prefer to combine live racing coverage on the TV screen with a promotional presentation.
