A managed, cloud-based master control solution purpose-built for public media stations has come to market, and it is thanks to a partnership between LTN and Public Media Management (PMM).
According to the companies, PMM Cloud was developed to help stations address growing financial pressures, aging broadcast infrastructure, and limited engineering resources.
PPM Cloud uses cloud-first architecture on the LTN Network to achieve that goal.
“Selecting the right technology partner was critical, and we went through a rigorous RFP process to ensure PMM Cloud would meet the real-world needs of public media stations,” said Marc Hand, CEO of Public Media Management. “LTN gives us the broadcast-proven infrastructure to offer stations the flexibility to run hands-off day-to-day operations or maintain full control over their schedules and workflows—while still benefiting from cloud-based agility and expert Network Operations Center staff, with live support available 24/7/365 for monitoring and oversight.”
PMM Cloud is offered as a fully managed service with transparent, predictable pricing and no required capital investment in traditional master control hardware. A single on-site gateway provides secure, bi-directional connectivity, while PMM’s Network Operations Center delivers continuous monitoring, operational support, and oversight.
