| Additionally,
an on-board Windows Media Server, fully supported by the advanced architecture
of the MGW 5100 platform and WMT encoders, enables viewing of traffic conditions
on the KHC Web site using any PC or PDA running a Windows Media Player. This provides
drivers with maximum traffic information before they approach the highways. Samsung
Networks provided integration for the video deployment, the release adds.
"KHC needed
a solution that would enable streaming a large number of channels in low bit rates
while maintaining superior quality," says S.T. Kim, GM of Diginix, Optibase's
partner in Korea. "The system had to be extremely stable as we rely on it
to provide accurate information in real-time. The Optibase platform provided us
with high quality encoding and streaming, and high availability and reliability,
all packaged in a compact chassis that results in lower operating expenses. Furthermore,
we can now easily monitor traffic conditions using a single management system
which is a significant benefit." "We
are pleased to have an opportunity to demonstrate how our IPTV streaming solution
is not only a major requirement of Telecom operators for IPTV deployments worldwide,
but is also sought by corporations and agencies such as KHC that need high quality
and high stability video applications," says Yossi Aloni, VP of marketing
at Optibase. "Through close cooperation with our partners, we have provided
a sophisticated video system tailored to KHC's needs." |
