Some installation jobs understandably pique the interest so when we heard about an AV project that panders to the needs of over 1000 people per day, includes a complex and multifaceted distribution system and also floats we were more than a little intrigued. It was the floating part that got us interested too...
A collaboration between LG and Stena has seen each of the cabins on the Stena Hollandica and Stena Brittanica ferries fitted with 22-inch LG LCD televisions, with 32-inch televisions in premium cabins. There is a central rack of receivers which feeds the LG Hotel TV distribution system. This advanced platform encodes all channels to a common MPEG-4/H.264 format and delivers it via a complex RF network, ensuring stable performance on every screen.
“I have been using LG products at home as well as on some of our ships for years, so I know them to be very reliable,” said Richard Moon, audio-visual manager for Stena Line BV.“For the two new vessels I tested hotel television systems from several manufacturers. The LG televisions had the edge over the competition in picture quality, and their overall system offering gave us the best price as well as performance.”
“These two super-ferries are remarkably advanced vessels, and deserve an advanced, future-proof television distribution system,” said Roy Martin, Technical Manager of LG Electronics. “At LG we have put our weight behind providing excellent support for our business to business partners, and we are delighted to be able to point to the Stena Line installations as a great success.”
