Anevia confirms its position in healthcare market with Croix-Rouge fran aise showcase 01 Jul 2014

Anevia Enterprise, a leader in video streaming and infrastructure solutions for OTT, live television and video on demand, announces that an Anevia Flamingo XS head-end has been selected as the core of a new television distribution installation designed for Croix-Rouge fran aise, the French Red Cross.

The Anevia gateway was chosen and installed by Netlogon, a specialist in the integration and commissioning of IP-based networking systems. This new installation is located at the recently modernised La Ruche EHPAD nursing home in France. La Ruche has 86 rooms, each equipped with a connected Samsung Hospitality IP television receiver providing easy access to a large number of IPTV channels via the Flamingo XS. The system streams live multicast television directly to each room. It also provides about 40 channels of television content from free-to-air digital terrestrial and satellite sources.

Television is a central element in the domestic life of many people, particularly as they grow older or become infirm, comments St phane Gouillart, Regional Technical Manager, Croix-Rouge fran aise. Anevias technology enables us to give patients a wide choice television content to match their interests or regional preferences. It is very easy to use, which is obviously a vital concern, compact and highly reliable.

Anevia Enterprise is the market leader in the hotels and resorts business with thousands of systems successfully deployed, adds Damien Lucas, CTO and co-founder. This project for Croix-Rouge fran aise confirms our position as a major participant in the healthcare sector.

Anevias Flamingo technology was the logical choice for this turnkey project, says Netlogon Sales Director Emmanuel Hardy. It connects directly to smart TVs without requiring any additional interface or set-top-box. Deployment, administration and operation were very easy. Thanks to the modular and scalable platform, the range of TV services can be expanded if or whenever this is required. Our own Netlogon Middleware, e-NHSTM, is also scalable, allowing easy addition of new features such as video-on-demand, internal information pages, family portals, daily news or internal channels.

Anevias Flamingo is a modular, easy-to-configure-and-deploy family of IPTV head-ends targeted at the hospitality market. Flamingo captures live TV & radio content from satellite, cable and digital terrestrial, and streams it over IP networks to set-top boxes, PCs and other IP-connected devices. It can deliver hundreds of streams from a single box. Modular hardware design makes the head-ends scalable to meet business growth.
