RESELLER NEWS www.postmagazine.com 15 POST FEBRUARY 2015 JOSEPH ELECTRONICS TO CARRY FULL VITEC PRODUCT LINE NILES, IL — Joseph Electronics (www.josephelectronics.com) recently en- tered into an agreement with Vitec, a provider of digital video solutions for the broadcast and entertainment industries. The reseller will serve as a Vitec solutions partner (VSP), supplying Vitec products — including the company's EZ TV IPTV System — throughout North America. "The Internet has transformed the way our customers deliver and manage video channels, not only for external viewers, but for internal audiences too," says Yohay Hahamy, president/CEO of Joseph Electronics. "IPTV is a great alternative to traditional RF CATV systems and has been very popular with sta- diums and broadcasters alike. Vitec's modular EZ TV IPTV System is, with good reason, the most deployed H.264 enterprise IPTV delivery system in the world. Adding it to our product lineup means our customers can now implement an advanced, scalable IPTV solution on their own networks, and do it quickly." The EZ TV IPTV System was recently installed at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
