BeamTV Awards powered by Five-Nine's Signature solution.

31st October 2005 - BEAM.TV has banished the nightmare of submitting work to awards shows on tape. For no extra cost, they will distribute archived commercials amongst the world's most prestigious advertising awards schemes. And it's all done online, straight from your desktop.


Since February of 2005 the Signature Beambox has been successfully serving media at award shows around the world, the highlight being at ‘Cannes Lions 2005, 52 nd International Advertising Festival'.

Used in seven award rooms including the ‘Grand viewing theatre' the machines were run continuously for up to 14 hours a day being pushed to the limit both on performance and environment.

Drew Bates (Awards show manager, BeamTV) provided the original specification to provide a small form factor computer based solution with the following functionality;

Easy to transport
Aesthetically pleasing
Large removable media storage
Low noise, efficient cooling
Audio output via Phono connectors
Composite video output via BNC
Wireless connectivity
High performance dual graphics output
Temperature monitoring
Suitable COTS products were found and bespoke components were designed and manufactured. The system was then fully integrated, tested and soak tested then shipped to BeamTV for active service.

Drew Bates had the following to say;

“ The solution and service provided to us by Nine-Five solutions has been beyond all expectations. Five-Nine Solutions have been available anywhere, anytime to support our beamboxes and ensure they are running 100% at every event”
