from Broadband Gear Report’s Diamond Technology Reviews
Indianapolis, Indiana (Wednesday June 11, 2008)
Trilithic, a leading provider of Government-mandated Emergency Alert
Systems, announced that it’s EASyIP EAS Network Receiver has
been awarded 4.5 out of a possible 5 Diamonds in Broadband Gear
Report’s 2008 Technology Reviews, which recognizes innovative
products and solutions for the cable industry.
The Diamond Technology Reviews are an annual product review
process in which a select team of broadband industry professionals
analyze products submitted by the vendor community. This year judges included professionals from Charter,
KnowledgeLink, Suddenlink, Sunflower Broadband, Bresnsan and Time Warner.
"The Diamond Technology Reviews judging panel gave the Trilithic EasyIP Network Receiver stellar marks for
its flexibility and ease-of-use. They saw it as a fundamental upgrade to the laborious process of managing EAS
systems in multiple headends/hubs and geographies," Laura Hamilton, editor-in-chief at BGR, says.
The highest mark awarded for any product reviewed by the select group of independent judges was a 4.5
Diamonds. Criteria used in the Diamonds rankings included innovation, ease of use, efficiency, reliability and
technological capabilities. The EASyIP EAS Network Receiver was deemed an excellent product with technical
features and performance that provide clear and substantial benefits and is thought of as a Superb product that
sets new standard for performance; provides groundbreaking and NEW technical milestones.
“This outstanding rating reflects our commitment to listening to our customers.” Says Terry Bush, President of
Trilithic. “We’re honored to have our EAS solution deemed outstanding by these esteemed judges and
continue our commitment to the cable community and dedication to providing innovative solutions.”
The EASyIP EAS Network Receiver extends the area of message reception for a Cable TV or IPTV network,
while improving the reliability of the message delivery. The receiver will log and cue the EAS message for the
EAS Encoder/Decoder. Once the Encoder/Decoder is ready for the message it is handled and distributed to
consumers. There are no more lost messages. In addition, The EASyPLUS or EASyIP Encoder/Decoder can
handle duplicate messages, providing a level of redundancy that has not been available before. With better
message reception, audio message storage and cueing, and EAS message redundancy, the EASyIP EAS
Network Receiver has changed the way EAS networks are designed and operated.
The new EASyIP EAS Network Receiver will be available for demonstration at the SCTE Cable Tec Expo at the
Trilithic Booth. Contact your local Trilithic Representative or Trilithic direct at 800-344-2412 for more information
