Optibase will mark the European lunch of its Enterprise TV solution, the EZ TV system, at IBC 2007, stand 2.249, September 7 -11, 2007, Amsterdam. EZ TV is a powerful system that turns any local area network to a digital video delivery network. It is the ideal solution for TV Networks that need to continuously monitor both affiliates’ and competitors’ TV channels directly on employee desktops. The EZ TV is, also, well suited to meet the needs of military bases, police forces, corporate IT and government facilities seeking to distribute TV channels and locally generated video content throughout their facility, over their existing IP infrastructure. Combined with Optibase’s Media Gateway advanced encoding and streaming platforms, EZ TV offers an effective multi-channel video distribution to PC and Mac workstations, laptops, plasma screens with IP set-top-boxes and handheld devices.
The EZ TV system is quick to set up and easy to maintain using a central web-based management system. The EZ TV system can manage streams from a variety of sources; satellite dishes, terrestrial antennas, stationary cameras, vehicles equipped with cameras and VTRs’ tape content in different formats, such as high definition, standard definition, H.264, MPEG-4, MPEG-2 and MPEG-1.
The powerful EZ TV player allows authorized users in the organization to have immediate and interactive access to all video streams displayed on 1, 4, 9 or 16 windows simultaneously. With EZ TV’s video engine, the video streams are delivered in top broadcast quality without compromising the bandwidth requirements.
“Video streaming is becoming a strategic tool for corporations, educators, government, military and other content owners looking for a new dynamic, efficient and more interactive way for organizational communication,” said Yossi Aloni, vice president of marketing at Optibase. “Optibase EZ TV is the ideal solution for enterprises seeking an advanced IPTV platform to maximize the communication potential of Internet TV in a PC environment.”
