ACCESS has integrated its NetFront Living Connect 3.1 media sharing solution with support for DLNA VidiPath onto the Zip-R HDMI stick-based IP client solution from Zapperbox. The Zip-R stick is based on the EN7589 chipset solution from Entropic (NASDAQ:ENTR). The collaboration is intended to enable cable operators to deploy multiroom and multiscreen services to DLNA Certified products.
The solution plugs directly into an available HDMI port on a TV set and is powered by Entropic's EN7589 dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor with NEON extension. The three companies demonstrated the solution at CES 2015.
