Amino secures a contract to provide the Lenox Municipal Utilities communications system with a range of PVR set-top boxes to support the rollout of IPTV services.

Lenox Municipal Utilities provides power, water, and broadband to their community in Iowa. Initially, the company will deploy Amino’s A530 PVR set-top boxes to support a rollout of new IPTV-based entertainment services.

The A530 offers both standard and high definition performance plus a personal video recording function that allows pause, rewind, and a range of trickplay services.

Lenox Municipal Utilities was founded in 1913 as a water provider for the City of Lenox. They later added power and communications services to the services that they provide for the citizens of the city.
