IPTV Hybrid Solution for Hotel K99 in Radolfzell, Germany<\/h1>\n
\n
\n

The project<\/h2>\n

1 October 2019 | Situated in the heart of the Untersee region, the Hotel K99 offers accommodation and conference comfort of the highest standard. Clear lines and unadorned forms are the hallmarks of the hotel ambience. An extension with eleven new exclusive rooms was created for this hotel.
\nInitially, the cable TV connection for the entire hotel, which was subject to charges, was to be replaced by a headend. This will enable free satellite reception with a large selection of German-language and international channels.
\nIn a conversation at AXING in Ramsen, we presented the AXING headend technology as well as our interactive IPTV solutions for hotels. It quickly became clear that exclusive rooms with today\u2018s standard require more than just TV and radio reception.
\nThe IPTVSolutions offer a high added value for the guest and for the hotelier. The TV welcomes the guest personally, the TV menu and programmes appear in his native language, information and services can be operated interactively.
\nAll activities and the content provided for customers are processed by the hotel staff via the so-called middleware. It is the control centre of the web-based Content Management System (CMS). This CMS is characterized by intuitive, simple and fast operation of all functions.
\nIPTVSolutions are available in three different packages: basic-line, premium-line and exclusive-line. Additional functions can be added.<\/p>\n

The challenge<\/h2>\n

All rooms are already supplied with TV signals via coaxial lines. In order to continue using CATV distribution, 16 SAT transponders must be converted into 16 DVB-C channels. A SKY channel also had to be fed in.
\nTechnically, the IPTVSolution can be implemented both as a full IPTV version and as a hybrid version (DVB-C\/T + IP). Since the rooms are supplied with TV signals via coaxial lines, the hybrid version was particularly suitable for the K99. In the hybrid solution, the TV signals are distributed classically in DVB-C via the coaxial network and the interactive services via a WiFi network.
\nThe SmartTVs must have access to the middleware via WiFi and thus receive the interactive hotel menu. The 11 new televisions must therefore be compatible with the middleware.
\nThe PMS (hotel system) must provide the middleware with data on room occupancy, guest language, etc. and the design of the interactive menu must correspond to the corporate design of the K99.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
