Onelan has supplied a Building Schools for the Future (BSF) project in Sunderland with a digital signage and TV streaming system. The Castle View Enterprise Academy was established in September 2009 as one of five schools in the city to receive BSF funding.
Castle View wanted their digital signage system to provide a cost effective means of delivering information to visitors, students and staff. The Academy also wanted the provision of live TV across the IP network for both broadcast material and local events within the school, and to be able to record segments to provide video on demand resources for learning.
Castle View is using the digital signage to display a range of information including adverts for school clubs, results of House competitions, birthday messages, display of televisions channels during breaks and lunches, behavioural league tables and event details.
The network comprises 11 Onelan Net-Top-Boxes, one NTB 610 publisher, two OmniServers and 10 NTB 510 subscribers.
The OmniServers give the staff an ‘off air’ recording system but also the ability to link into the digital signage network. This provide the screens with live TV feeds for news and educational TV channels across the network infrastructure without the need to run additional RF cabling.
