InfoChannel
Broadcast Server 3
InfoChannel Broadcast Server 3 allows users
to broadcast powerful multimedia content to hundreds or thousands
of sites. The broadcast system makes content distribution
easy to manage for large installations and allows multiple
players to be addressed with a single transmission. It is
designed to support several network architectures including
satellite and multicast-IP. It also enables producers segment
the network so individualized programming can be targeted
to individual players or groups of players within the network.
A confirmation feature assures that data has been received
and is being correctly displayed.

InfoChannel
Reporter 3
InfoChannel Reporter 3 enables local management
to easily create and update multimedia messages on their InfoChannel
system using a standard networked PC, so if the price of a
t-shirt changes in only one location the rest are not affected.
With Reporter’s Windows-based template interface, anyone
in an organization can become a news editor with minimal time
and training. Templates can be customized to meet the needs
of any corporate communications, advertising, school or cable
TV network.
