Benefits

Unlike IPTV, there is no need to stream content continuously from the server. Hence there is no need for sustained data bandwidth at the OOHMP playout box, and this reduces the cost of operation. OOHMP playout box still has the capability of playing live stream. So whenever there is a live stream, the playout controller can switch to live streaming remotely from the CMS.

Since this is an independent carrier operation, it works with wired LAN environment and wireless wi-fi/wi-max / 3G/4G, etc. connection as well.

The CMS controls the entire media content; thus, it helps the content owners create central as well as local revenue streams.

There is NO need for a satellite uplink and downlink licenses. When the satellite licenses are issued, you still need a month to be operational. It works anywhere in the world without the need for multiple satellites hopping.

Hence same content dubbed in multiple languages can be played in different regions simultaneously without worrying about different satellite frequencies.
