Pebble Beach Systems Welcomes New Orders

Pebble Beach Systems has reported a number of new orders following a successful IBC show in Amsterdam last month. The company added that it has experienced a 53.3% year-on-year growth in order intake for the first half of 2016.

The contracts are with new customers and for system expansions across the globe, including ARTE in France, CNN in Chile, DMC in the Netherlands, Globosat in Brazil, Groupe V Media in Canada, IMG in the UK, MBC in Dubai, and TV3 in Ireland.

New product offerings from Pebble Beach Systems include the 4K Dolphin integrated channel device, a virtualised playout system for private and public clouds (Orca), and partnerships with vendors such as Harmonic, Pixel Power and Tedial. In addition, Pebble's global talent pool is also expanding with a growing team of skilled people and a network of worldwide channel partners.

Tom Gittins, CEO of Pebble Beach Systems, said: "Our strategy focuses on allowing customers to migrate to new IP and cloud-based solutions whilst protecting their current playout investment. The industry is transforming towards software-only infrastructures and a SaaS model, and Pebble Beach Systems is well positioned to adapt to this changing landscape.

"Software-based systems can integrate at a whole new level, as we recently demonstrated with the 'PixelPowered' graphics plugin. This approach offers our customers the ability to retain partnerships with companies who are experts in their own fields and enables the delivery of multi-vendor solutions in a pure software environment.

"For legacy system owners looking to move their operation to cutting edge technology that is fully supported and growing, we have created the tools to make that process as seamless as possible. A comprehensive automation system like Marina allows our customers to update all or parts of their signal chain when it is appropriate for their business."
