Canby Telcom Selects Amino For IPTV Rollout

Amino Communications (LSE AIM: AMO), the world-leading IPTV specialist, has secured a contract with Oregon-based Canby Telcom to provide a range of high definition IPTV set-top boxes.

Following a competitive pitch, Canby Telcom selected Amino to partner in the continued rollout of entertainment services to its 7,000-strong customer base and 9,000 access lines. Initially, the company will deploy Amino’s A130 and A530 PVR set-top boxes with a planned migration to next generation A140/A540 devices in the next 12 months.

Amino’s new A140 and A540 PVR set-top boxes are based on the latest STi7105 System on Chip (SoC) solutions and are now available in the US market.

Canby Telcom’s Brandon Zupancic said: “We were seeking a partner for the deployment of our IPTV services who could demonstrate a clear development path with its products that would ensure our customers enjoyed the best possible user experience. Initial deployments of A530 DVR boxes have been very well-received, and we look forward to working with Amino as we continue to deliver IPTV services to our customers.”

Amino’s Chief Executive Officer Andrew Burke added: “This was a very competitive pitch, where our products had to really prove themselves both technically and also in terms of end user satisfaction. Working closely with Canby, we were able to demonstrate a clear roadmap for our current and future products and are delighted to have secured this important contract.”
