DIRECTV Residential Experience (DRE)

TV for Hotels - DIRECTV Residential Experience DRE vs DRE Plus FSI Q4 2018

The DIRECTV Residential Experience (DRE) is a
Revolutionary TV System for Hospitals and Healthcare

The DIRECTV Residential Experience (DRE) is groundbreaking, advanced hospitality technology. Unlike other TV systems designed for hospitals and healthcare, the DRE is is now available to facilities with all types of wiring schemes (home-run or loop-thru/daisy chain).

Your patients and staff will benefit from access to hundreds of HD channels and exclusive sports programming, like NFL SUNDAY TICKET and the user-friendly interactive program guide they are used to at home.

Hospitals and Healthcare facilities utilizing the DRE will benefit from happier residents and now the new DIRECTV  Welcome Screen system.

Unlike Cable and other TV systems, the DIRECTV Residential Experience‘s advanced technology solution lays the foundation for a more robust, interactive patient experience without the additional, and often costly, hardware requirements.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Our customers tell us that this system allows hospitals and healthcare facilities to give your patients the same TV experience they have at home, including a full residential channel lineup, for less money than other options.

At the size of a small book,the DIRECTV in-room receiver size makes it easy to mount behind the flat screen HD TV, hiding it from sight and making for a much cleaner looking room.

Instead of limited channels for your patients and the costs associated with headend systems and Pro-Idiom TVs or cable, when they installed the DIRECTV Residential Experience (DRE) our hospital and healthcare customers received advanced technology that is upgradable without additional hardware, more control of your tv system, and easier maintenance with no upfront money, 100% financing and less installation headaches
– at a lower price than cable.

DIRECTV COM3000 High Definition Headend System

54 channel COM3000 4K/HD headend from DIRECTV and Its All About SatellitesThe Technicolor COM3000 HD Headend – For facilities that require a centralized headend type television system, DIRECTV delivers what is the clear industry standard for healthcare and hospitals.

The COM3000 high definition/4K headend is a virtually plug and play system that provides up to 138 HD/4K channels in 3RU of rack space. And uses just 225W of energy!!

When it was introduced in 2009 the COM1000 HD Pro:idiom headend system was a revolution in Hotel and Healthcare TV Systems. The new COM3000 headend TV system brings the technological advances, convenience and the features that quickly made the COM1000 the industry standard high definition headend system.

With the NEW COM3000 you can increase channels easily by adding receiver blades, the system includes redundancy of key components to give you peace of mind that you system will maintain uptime, it supports both RF and IP-based networks, the system automatically tracks DIRECTV programming changes, and can be monitored both on your local LAN and remotely via a built-in web interface.

The COM3000 is also backwards compatible with the COM1000 and COM2000 Pro:Idiom HD Headend Systems so you can expand on an existing system or upgrade.

Plug and Play = No Worries About Downtime

For healthcare facilities that are currently using an existing analog or COM1000/2000 headend, you may be worried about the downtime involved in switching to HD. It’s a very real concern, because in a 24/7/365 industry you’re talking about disconnecting TV in every single room. With the COM3000 that worry is completely gone.

The system is direct swap-in for an existing headend and in most cases requires absolutely no additional cabling. The headend staging and design can be done before the system is hooked to your HDTVs and then it’s a simple matter of connecting the new system, disconnecting the old, and setting up the in-room HDTVs.

One of the biggest benefits is the nearly plug and play compatibility of the COM2000 HD Headend. In a 24/7/365 industry, the ability to simply cut over to a new system with little or no downtime is a critical difference.

 

COM3000 Energy Savings

Compared to a 36-channel stacked receiver analog headend, a 138-channel COM3000 HD Headend system will save approximately $2,465 in operating costs over a 5 year contract!

Best of all, a fully configured COM3000 HD headend system is about 1/2 the cost of a similarly configured Com1000 Pro:Idiom headend system
