Uniguest has partnered with Extreme Networks to automate the provisioning and ongoing management of IPTV and digital signage endpoints operating across large-scale enterprise and venue network infrastructures.
Under the integration, media players powered by Uniguest’s Hub AV platform (formerly Tripleplay) automatically announce and identify themselves to Extreme Fabric Attach. Network administrators can apply centralised, preconfigured policies that provision endpoints on connection, eliminating individual manual device onboarding.
Traditional network edge hardware, including digital signage displays and IP cameras, typically requires per-device port configuration before connecting to automated fabric backbones. The integrated architecture connects endpoints directly into an Extreme Fabric Connect topology, extending policy-based management across the network perimeter.
The automated provisioning framework targets sports stadia, arenas and large hospitality venues deploying hundreds or thousands of networked display endpoints. It supports Uniguest’s Sports Hub and Enterprise Hub offerings, where operations teams frequently reconfigure display groups for differing event formats.
The collaboration also validates Hub AV streaming and digital signage capabilities across Extreme Fabric environments, supporting high-availability failover, multicast IPTV transmission and frame-synchronised multi-screen media playback.
Pankaj Kulkarni, executive vice president of product management at Uniguest, said: “Sports venues and enterprises need technology that’s not only powerful and reliable, but also straightforward to deploy and manage. By integrating with Extreme Fabric Attach, we’re making it easier for customers to deploy IPTV and digital signage across their networks, while reducing the time and complexity involved in configuring individual devices.”
