Inlet Extends WealthTV’s Reach to International Subscribers Via a Live, Linear 24/7 TV Broadcast Over IP to 3 Screens

Inlet’s Spinnaker Prepares HD Quality Video for Delivery Over the Top Via Adaptive Bitrate Streaming

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA – OCTOBER 19, 2010 – Inlet Technologies, the leader in innovative solutions for digital media preparation, announced today that 24/7 HD cable television network, WealthTV, has selected Inlet to deliver live, linear broadcast television to international subscribers over the Internet using Inlet’s SpinnakerTM streaming appliance. Subscribers will have 24/7 access to WealthTV content through their TVs via IP-based set top boxes, computers, and/or mobile devices including the Apple® iPhone® and iPadTM.

WealthTV’s audience consists of more than 10 million subscribers in the US and Caribbean. “The Spinnaker solution for live streaming helps us expand our reach to a broader international audience easily and cost effectively,” explained Charles Herring, president, WealthTV. “Based on the high praise we heard about Spinnaker from both the industry and Inlet’s customers, we are confident in its ability to deliver exceptional HD quality content in multiple formats to multiple devices. Trying to accomplish that with a traditional satellite broadcast would have been a very complex and expensive proposition.”
