KINGSTON ANNOUNCE FORMATION OF NEW DIVISION

KINGSTON MediaStream, the advanced satellite communications service providers of the Kingston Communications Group, have announced the formation of a new division to service the enterprise sector.
In conjunction with this announcement, the company have also launched their IP streaming platform, the technology foundation of the services the new division will provide. IP streaming allows high quality video and audio files to be broadcast live over the Internet, and removes the delay associated with having to first download such files. Analysts predict that the IP streaming market will be worth E7.8bn by 2003.
Nick Thompson, Managing Director of Kingston MediaStream, said: "The launch of this division and the IP streaming platform is a major development for our company. It positions Kingston MediaStream as the only UK company able to provide a true 'one-stop-shop' to enterprises looking to invest in and expand employee and customer communications."
IP streaming to the enterprise desktop provides radical new opportunities for the delivery of interactive, Internet-based services, particularly in the areas of e-learning and dynamic multimedia web broadcasting. The new division will provide businesses with IP streamed services over Internet, intranet and extranet connections, with all links provided via satellite. The Kingston MediaStream platform enables live, interactive or recorded content to be streamed directly to employees' and customers' desktops. This new service complements and builds on the Business TV services already on offer from the Kingston MediaStream TV Facilities division.
The IP streamed applications provided by the Enterprise Division are further enhanced by Kingston MediaStream's high bandwidth satellite networking links - this minimises the impact of local bandwidth bottlenecks and problems associated with delivery over 'the last mile'.
The Enterprise Division can also enhance the options available to website managers by providing interactive, 'rich media' content and has the capability to offer digital and 'in-house' radio. To support the raft of services on offer, Kingston MediaStream provides networking solutions including Internet and managed file delivery services.
Further product announcements to complement those already available are expected over the coming months. (CD)
