SAN DIEGO, Sept. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATX Networks, a global technology provider delivering broadband access, media distribution and energy storage solutions to communications service providers, today highlighted how its Visium™ platform is powering a major expansion of managed video for a Tier 1 cable operator in the United States. The MSO's network is now using Visium to bring modern, app-controlled video to commercial venues and multi-dwelling properties at scale. The deployment spans single-tablet screen control and synchronization for bars and restaurants, to centrally managed common-area entertainment for apartments, senior living communities, and multi-dwelling units like student and military housing.
With a network footprint spanning millions of homes and businesses nationwide, video delivery can become an operational nightmare: dozens of screens per venue, hundreds of units per property and legacy systems that were never built to be managed remotely. ATX built Visium to answer that problem with a cloud-native, scalable app-based foundation that service providers can deploy under their own brand across every environment they serve.
Centralized Control for Commercial Venues
Built on the Visium Venue, the MSO's commercial video offering puts control of every screen in a venue into a single intuitive tablet app, on iOS or Android. Staff can change channels across one screen or every screen at once, keep programming synchronized venue-wide and schedule changes in advance, turning what used to require multiple remotes and multiple staff members into one point of control.
Managed Video for Properties, At Scale
On the bulk residential side, the MSO is extending that same centralized philosophy to multi-dwelling properties through offerings built on ATX's Visium MD Multimedia Gateways. In-unit deployments give residents move-in-ready video service without the wait for new equipment or account setup, while common-area offerings extend the experience to lounges, fitness centers and dining halls through a management application that enables property staff to run every shared-space screen from a single source rather than juggling remotes.
Both offerings are designed to work with a property's existing ethernet or coax infrastructure, cutting installation time and cost across a wide range of owner-responsible property types. For property owners already managing multiple vendors and legacy systems, that means simplified operations and a single point of contact for support. For residents, it means faster access to service, a broader channel lineup than legacy systems typically offer and low-profile equipment that solves the space problems of traditional set-top boxes.
One Platform Built to Scale
The platform is expected to drive significant momentum for telecommunications providers’ average revenue per user (ARPU). “Visium solves a decades-old problem and propels ARPU growth,” said Sandip Singh, GM of Evolving Solutions and SVP of Corporate Strategy at ATX Networks. “Whether an operator is trying to keep every screen in a bar in sync during a big game or a property owner is trying to modernize video experiences across hundreds of units, the underlying challenge is the same: give them a cost effective and simple way to manage multiple screens. That is what this platform delivers.”
Visium was created as an enabling platform for the launch of advanced services, made possible by its flexible cloud-native architecture and AI-powered data analytics engine. We envision advanced capabilities like presence, interactivity, seamless experiences that will further enhance revenue and customer satisfaction.
"What makes this deployment stand out is how much of the complexity we absorb, so operators don’t have to," said Linas Underys, VP, Product & Business Development, Media Distribution at ATX Networks. "Our gateways are built to work with the infrastructure a property already has, so service providers can launch a modern managed video experience without a forklift upgrade."
See It Live at SCTE TechExpo26
ATX will demonstrate the Visium Venue Platform and Visium MD Multimedia Gateways live at SCTE TechExpo26, September 29 through October 1 in Atlanta, at Booth A159, where attendees can see the tablet-based venue control applications firsthand. The demo sits alongside the rest of ATX's portfolio, spanning broadband access, media distribution and energy storage. It reflects the company's broader strategy of equipping MSOs with technology across the full network, from outside plant infrastructure through the gateways and applications that shape the subscriber experience. As service providers compete for commercial and residential video customers, that portfolio gives them a faster path to differentiated offerings without adding operational complexity.
