TV REMOTE

Working in the mining industry in Australia is one of the toughest and most extreme careers in the world, the work is tough, temperatures high and staff are often isolated from the outside world for long periods of time. Ensuring they are properly looked after is something that Chinova Resources has gone to great lengths for; both during working hours and rest. One important ‘home comfort’ is a proper TV service: “We have a very remote camp at one of our mines and needed a solution that was very ‘hands-off’ and required limited support as, should something go wrong, it would be very difficult to get somebody physically on site in a timely manner,” comments Jon O’Brien, IT Manager at Chinova Resources. Jon researched the IPTV industry and came across Tripleplay, a solution already deployed in a number of mines and the stand out solution that Chinova considered. Chinova selected TripleTV IPTV delivered via the TripleChoice Interactive TV Portal, giving them the opportunity to brand the television service with their own logos and photography and provide information services to staff through special pages in the TV system. The Tripleplay solution delivers fourteen channels to staff including ABC1, Channel 9, Fox Sports 1, 2 and 3, Premiere Blockbuster, Action and Sky News, and provides each member of staff with the ability to record and store TV shows; meaning they never need to miss their favourite shows even when working unsociable shifts.
