Case Study: The SSE Hydro delivers world-class IPTV and digital signage with Uniguest

World-class IPTV and Digital Signage solution for a truly unique live events venue

The SSE Hydro, a major live events venue in Glasgow, needed a modern, centrally-managed IPTV and digital signage solution to display content throughout its new arena. The challenge was to leverage their existing IP network to provide live TV, advertising, and camera feeds for visitors and staff while ensuring the system had minimal network impact. They chose to work with Uniguest's Tripleplay solution.

Uniguest implemented its Tripleplay IPTV and digital signage system across the venue, delivering content to over 140 screens managed from a central web interface. This allowed The SSE Hydro to effortlessly promote sponsors, manage playlists, and stream live footage, creating new revenue opportunities and enhancing the visitor experience. The solution proved to be highly IP-efficient, having no adverse effect on the network, and provided a future-proof platform that is integral to the venue's operations.
