I'm not involved with it, but we switched over to IPTV several years ago. S=
tudents can rent an IPTV-to-TV converter for use on 'real' televisions.

Greetings,
I've been asked to see what other locations are doing in terms of CableTV a=
nd related internet bandwidth for students.
We currently have a head-end structure with rigid coax between buildings an=
d service from DirecTV. The equipment in place allows us to distribute an a=
nalog signal in standard definition. We are looking to upgrade our setup, a=
nd are considering several options. Does anyone still have a head-end struc=
ture? Do you get service from the internet or satellite? If by internet, th=
en how much bandwidth is this consuming? Do you offer HD services to studen=
ts? Do you distribute internally via ethernet or coax?
I assume others, like us, have seen a rise in internet offerings such as Ne=
tFlix and Hulu for student entertainment. Has this caused a noticeable incr=
ease in traffic? Does anyone shape this traffic, only allow it during certa=
in times, or is your bandwidth sufficient enough to handle the traffic?
Any comments or insights would be appreciated.
Thanks!
