ITC goes "Live" with new Amino advanced media platform for enhanced services rollout
Â
Amino Technologies plc (LSE: AMO), the Cambridge-based leader in digital entertainment solutions for IPTV, Internet TV and in-home multimedia distribution, has secured a contract to provide US local IPTV service provider Interstate Telecommunications Cooperative Inc (ITC) with its Live Advanced Media Platform.
Â
Serving a number of towns across South Dakota and Minnesota, ITC has a long history of technological innovation combined with a strong local focus which extends to providing multiple community access channels for local schools, sports teams and churches.
Â
Services also include over 70 HD channels, Video on demand, Whole Home DVR and TV everywhere functionality - delivered over a mixed fibre and VDSL network.
Â
ITC's Network Operations Manager Ren Preheim said: "In trials we were very impressed with the power and performance of the Live platform and believe it offers a future-proof platform for the kinds of advanced services we're deploying and the changing needs of our customer base."
Â
Amino CEO Donald McGarva added: "ITC has a proud record of innovation and we're delighted that they have selected the Live platform for their next stage of service deployment. We are seeing very strong interest - and market traction - for this innovative new device as operators see the clear need for a media powerhouse in the home to manage and distribute content to multiple screens."
Â
Powered by the Intel® dual core ATOM™ processor, the Live Advanced Media Platform is Amino's latest generation home media hub for multiscreen and multi-stream delivery around the home. Catch-up TV services, video on demand, social and user-generated content are all handled seamlessly by the device - which offers ten times the processing power of a standard IP set-top box.
Â
In addition to PVR and Wi-Fi capability, the Live Advanced Media Platform can also record up to six channels and then play out content securely over the home network.
