WATERLOO, ON – Dejero is teaming up with Ottawa-based FileCatalyst on a new solution that will allow broadcasters to move large data quickly, securely, and reliably back to base while in the field.
The companies said Tuesday that the combination of the Dejero GateWay mobile Internet connectivity solution and FileCatalyst Direct will enable remote reporting teams to access their station's media asset management (MAM) systems to create fully packaged reports, news clips, and to upload complete stories faster.
“Our customers need to get their content back to the station as quickly as possible, so combining the two technologies adds real value,” said Kevin Fernandes, VP of sales at Dejero, in the news release. “Dejero GateWay provides field crews with reliable, high throughput connectivity to quickly and easily upload and download large files to and from MAM systems, private networks, and cloud services that are increasingly being adopted by broadcasters and media organization, without having to return to the station. This means the crews can spend more time in the field, covering more news stories and live events, and less time commuting back and forth between assignments.”
“FileCatalyst customers are used to fast transfers of broadcast-quality video content, but getting those files back to studio as quickly as possible in challenging field environments, where connectivity and bandwidth are an issue, is now possible with the Dejero GateWay solution,” added Elton Carneiro, director of strategic partnerships and cloud services at FileCatalyst. “It was difficult for us to find a solution to match the speed of file transfers our customers are used to, but Dejero GateWay has proven to be the exception, and this partnership takes fast file transfers in the field to a whole new level.”
