Wegener Corporation (OTCQB: WGNR.PK), a leading provider of equipment for television, audio and data distribution networks worldwide, today announced the receipt of an order for iPump® 562 enterprise media players totaling $1,100,000. The units will be deployed in an international satellite-enabled digital signage project.

WEGENER’s digital signage solution provides simultaneous support of multiple clients, marketing zones and applications. It includes new digital sign creation for custom sign layouts and sequences of video, audio, graphics, html and text content. It can be used to display local content at 1 or 1000+ screens utilizing a control system proven to support millions of ad insertions a month.

“Adding digital signage to our portfolio of media distribution solutions expands our clients’ ability to deliver targeted messages,” stated Troy Woodbury, President and CEO of Wegener Corporation. “Coupled with Compel® 2 network control, clients can easily manage a variety of communication tools to multiple audiences in hundreds of locations.”

WEGENER iPump 562 media players provide a flexible messaging environment with features supporting live HD video, background music and digital signage. The new WEGENER Compel 2 network control system is used to remotely manage iPump 562 media players. Compel 2 distributes audio/visual commands, manages schedules, receiver databases and distribution over satellite & Internet paths. The new web browser interface streamlines support for multiple networks with enhanced permission-based access and segregation of network data.

The order was booked during WEGENER’s current first fiscal quarter of 2011 and will ship during WEGENER’s first and second quarters of 2011.
