3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Path 1 Network Technologies Inc.
(AMEX:PNO), a leading provider of video gateway products that
enable the transmission of broadcast-quality video over IP
networks, today announced the introduction of Path 1's Professional
Services Group. Consisting of experienced business strategists and
leading technical experts, Path 1's Professional Services Group
will provide a full range of strategic consulting and technical
advisory services aimed at assisting broadcasters and network
service providers with the design and commissioning of IP-based
digital TV platforms and content distribution networks. "The number
of individual video streams being produced by digital TV services
will continue to increase, as programming services strive to
deliver customized versions to a growing number of Final Mile
delivery platforms," said Gerry Kaufhold, analyst with In-Stat, a
market research firm based in Scottsdale, Arizona. "Path 1's newly
announced Professional Services Group will help speed this market
forward by providing expertise for building out Video-over-IP
technology, which leaves programming services free to focus on
managing the ever-growing demand for their TV content." Today's
broadcasters are faced with a daunting challenge of managing and
operating their existing video infrastructure, while simultaneously
planning for the impending migration to next generation,
packet-based IP video networks. To assist them with this challenge,
Path 1 has created a comprehensive professional services offering
aimed at providing the necessary technical support, as well as
strategic advisory services that will significantly reduce the
complexity in implementing video over IP services. "In this new age
of converged communications, the introduction of new services and
the complexities of implementing new technologies have placed an
unusual burden on service providers," said Dan McCrary, Vice
President of Marketing for Path 1. "As our customers continue to
look towards IP networks for their broadcast video distribution
needs, Path 1 is dedicated to providing them with a full range of
services that will ease the network migration process, and allow
them to remain focused on their core business and customer
retention activities while simultaneously planning for the future."
McCrary went on to say, "By leveraging Path 1's unmatched
experience in IP video transport, our service organization provides
the perfect complement to our product portfolio. Path 1 has been
squarely focused on IP video distribution and contribution since
the company's inception in 1998. Today, with the IP video market
set to flourish, we are in a unique position where we can impart an
unrivaled level of accumulated experience and expertise to our
customers. This will ultimately benefit them, and allow them to
quickly migrate to new services in what is becoming an increasingly
competitive market." Path 1's Professional Services Group will
offer a full range of strategic consulting and technical
engineering services. This includes: Performance Benchmarking &
Best Practices Assessment The Performance Benchmarking and Best
Practices Assessment is designed to help customers understand how
