Glowpoint, Inc. (NASDAQ: GLOW) today kicked off its IP-based broadcasting service for NFL Network, the only television network dedicated to the NFL and the sport of football, for the 2005-2006 season. GlowPoint's technology enables all 32 teams to connect instantly during this summer's NFL training camps and continuing throughout the regular season, playoffs and Super Bowl. The video communication solution uses a combination of GlowPoint and Sony technology to provide "Team Cam" interviews with coaches and players on NFL Network's signature show, NFL Total Access. During the "Team Cam" segments, Rich Eisen, host of NFL Total Access, will conduct live face-to-face interviews with multiple players from different NFL teams and locations to discuss the latest news taking place around the league. In addition, during the regular season, NFL Network will utilize the IP-based solution to broadcast Monday's head coach press conferences from around the country. NFL Network currently reaches more than 27 million homes across the United States and internationally. "The ability to receive live footage from any NFL team facility at a moment's notice is one of the keys to NFL Network's success," said Peter Brickman, senior director of broadcasting operations and technology at the NFL. "By using a combination of Sony's state-of-the-art videoconferencing and broadcast equipment and GlowPoint's IP-based network services and applications, NFL Network can leverage a flexible, reliable and high quality video communications service throughout the NFL season in a variety of unique ways." "Providing NFL Network with a way to deliver real time, face-to-face interviews with players and coaches throughout the season illustrates the value of the solution we're offering with Sony to broadcasters both in the studio and on location," said David Trachtenberg, chief executive officer at GlowPoint. "Working with NFL Network is a perfect platform to exhibit the exceptional video and audio quality we are able to provide, while illustrating how flexible and cost-effective an IP-based broadcasting solution truly is." Sony Electronics, the nation's leading provider of professional video and audio equipment to the broadcast and production industries, and GlowPoint originally announced the development of the first complete standards-based IP video communications solution designed to meet the specific needs of television broadcasters this past April. The bundled offering combines Sony's state-of-the-art IPELA(TM) line of audio/visual communication systems with GlowPoint's patent-pending advanced IP-based video applications and network services. With a 24/7 network operations center, advanced management tools and available on-site support, GlowPoint is the world's leading provider of IP-based broadcast services for major networks and live broadcast events. The combined solution provides on-demand broadcasting, with always-on network connectivity, and reduces transport costs by up to 80 percent as compared to satellite feeds.
