Qube Cinema has introduced WireLink to move digital cinema package files around the world securely and without a long-term commitment plan. The company says WireLink facilitates the delivery of digital cinema content to more theatres in more countries around the world. It says it is a convenient and secure way to deliver content to locations that are challenging to reach through existing physical, satellite, and electronic delivery methods.
The company says WireLink surmounts infrastructure and geographical challenges to deliver content securely and doesn’t require specialized hardware at the theatre or downloading a third-party service to download the DCP.
WireLink works alongside the Qube Wire installed network and enhances what Qube calls the fastest growing electronic delivery service in the world.
WireLink can be requested and sent via email or ordered through Qube Wire’s exhibitor portal and sent to verified recipients according to the distributor’s instructions. These links come with additional security features and the added benefit of being specially tailored to digital cinema workflows. Thus, they will reduce time and workload for distributors and exhibitors alike.
WireLink also allows the distributor to be able to send and monitor WireLink within their current Qube Wire portals.
“We continuously explore new ways to support our clients and work with them to ease their pain points,” said Nigel Dennis, Qube Cinema’s senior vice president of global sales. “WireLink will help distributors avoid uploading into third-party services which may result in show losses due to a mismatch of DCP assets. Now with WireLink, the DCP assets are downloaded and verified to ensure smooth playback. WireLink works with the current Qube Wire electronic network but adds extra versatility for those hard to get to areas.”
