Glowpoint Secures Remote Sports Analyst Contract

The services include the deployment of Glowpoint’s high-quality network
connectivity along with a full range of managed video services. The broadcaster
will leverage Glowpoint’s cost-effective services in order to do interviews
instantaneously with analysts and sports figures by using HD video conferencing
technology across the Glowpoint network – without the advance scheduling and
time-slot restrictions typically associated with satellite transmissions.

“Glowpoint
is becoming a known brand in the broadcast industry, and many production engineers
now refer to using the Remote-CamHD solution as ‘doing a Glowpoint,’” said Mike
Brandofino, Glowpoint’s president and CEO. “It’s great to see customers, who
formerly used us only for events, find reasons to permanently include the
Glowpoint solution in their normal production schedule.”

“We are
starting to see an ecosystem develop around the use of the Glowpoint service,
in which we are chosen as the connecting point for owners of content and
distributors of content,” Mr. Brandofino continued. “This puts Glowpoint in a
perfect position to benefit from the growing demand for live interactive HD
content.”

Glowpoint
provides IP-based broadcast solutions for national networks and cable TV
providers to enable on-demand content acquisition from fixed remote locations.
Glowpoint’s “always on,” exclusive video network connectivity reduces transport
costs by up to 80 percent as compared to traditional satellite feeds.
