The challenges
What is at stake
TV distribution for hotels and healthcare: satellite and DTT headends, coaxial or IPTV distribution, hotel TV sets, international channels and a custom welcome screen.
Channels for international guests
Your guests expect their own national and news channels, in their language.
Our answer
A channel line-up built with you from the available satellites.
TV sets under control
Settings changed by guests, volume at maximum, channels deleted: every room ends up different.
Our answer
Hotel mode: locked configuration, cloned to every set and updated remotely.
A communication channel
The TV is the first screen a guest sees on entering the room.
Our answer
A personalised welcome screen: greeting, hotel services, practical information.

See the plansCoax or IPTV: which one?
Coax is simple and robust, ideal for upgrading an existing network. IPTV uses the IT network and opens the door to interactive services.
Can you keep our current TV sets?
Often yes, if they are compatible with the chosen distribution method. We test them before suggesting any replacement.
Can a personalised welcome message be displayed?
Yes: a welcome screen in the hotel’s branding appears when the TV is switched on, with the information and services you choose.
