AANI News Amedia Announces Broadband Entertainment Center Designed To Enable Telecom Carriers to Deliver Triple-Play Services To Any Media Device Throughout the Networked Home
EATONTOWN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amedia Networks, Inc. (OTC BB: AANI) (FRANKFURT: TEJ), a provider of
next generation media gateways to distribute and manage ultra-broadband
triple-play services in the home, today announced that its new Broadband
Entertainment Center platform is being designed to combine the
collective functionality of a broadband gateway, as well as multiple
home entertainment and networking equipment, with a software operating
system and media storage – all in a single,
compact solution. The platform is designed to enable telecommunications
carriers to increase revenue opportunities and better manage triple-play
services, while also offering more convenience, quality assurance, and
other value-added benefits to subscribers.
The Amedia Broadband Entertainment Center is designed to be the central
point of networking for various media devices throughout the networked
home – from computers and televisions, to
gaming consoles and beyond. In addition to offering the collective
functionality of a modem, wireless access point, router, VoIP adapter,
and family firewall all-in-one, the Amedia gateway also features a
built-in operating system. This unique feature can be used by telcos to
deliver proprietary or third-party software programs and networking
capabilities to subscribers, such as web surfing, remote home
monitoring, and more.
Amedia’s QoStream technology allows service
providers or subscribers to prioritize bandwidth usage to ensure the
quality of various triple-play services being delivered simultaneously
to the home. Amedia also allows users to download and save multimedia
content right on their gateway, and then access or display that content
on virtually any networked device.
Amedia’s new line of gateways built on the
Broadband Entertainment Center platform is scheduled for Beta shipment
in the first quarter of 2007.
