Hibernia Media Deploys Dimetis BOSS LINK Manager® into its High Quality, Media-Centric Network
Broadcast Operations Support System software manages network connections for producers and broadcasters, delivering higher quality programming more economically and efficiently.
Dietzenbach, Germany – April 9, 2010, - Dimetis-GmbH, a German-based Broadcast OSS Supplier to world-class Telecommunication, Media and Broadcast Carriers, today announced the incorporation of its BOSS LINK Manager software into Hibernia Media’s nationwide media network. Hibernia Media, formerly known as MediaXstream, operates the largest national DTM network, specializing in transporting flawless digital and High Definition content in its native formats as demanded by sports, TV and film production, news, mobile and IPTV.
The BOSS LINK Manager® (BLM N) is designed to provide secure, flexible and simple end-user control for media-rich content, with scheduled or ad-hoc connections from signal source to one or more destinations throughout Hibernia Media’s extensive network.
This allows for more efficient and automated network performance by managing bandwidth across specific transmission routes, maximizing revenues while also providing for more customer control in managing their own connections and usage costs.
Commented Delwin Bothof, President of Hibernia Media, a subsidiary of Hibernia Atlantic, “Our customers include many of the biggest names in the media business. They require flawless transport and network control of on-demand media. Today there is no alternative to bandwidth on demand and Hibernia Media’s secure and diverse network ensures the delivery of high definition digital media.”
With BOSS LINK Manager®, Hibernia Media’s customers establish secure, on-demand point-to-point or multipoint virtual private connections to other network subscribers at various bandwidth rates up to and including 1.5Gbps. Media transfers are based on schedules of their own choosing without intervention by Hibernia Media customer service staff. An intuitive GUI configures and controls the entire network, displaying high-level graphical element overviews of all devices, connections and system status, with the ability to drill down into specific equipment details. Powerful filtering through sophisticated correlation and structured design techniques quickly isolate & identify root-cause faults.
Concluded Joe Kniesel, Dimetis CEO, “Our value-add comes from providing a standards-based control system that optimises media content flow across video facilities and high performance telecommunication networks like those of Hibernia Media, facilitating greater media exchange usage and operating efficiencies. We’re delighted to be a part of the Hibernia Media service offering as they continue to exceed the growing needs and demands of their customers.“
