Question
Will the Commission provide a full breakdown of the total cost of installing the new Tripleplay set top boxes to screens across the Senedd estate?
Answer
Answered by Senedd Commission
Ken Skates MS on behalf of the Senedd Commission:
The Tripleplay set top boxes were introduced as part of a larger project to replace the ageing internal television system across the Cardiff Bay estate with a new, combined digital signage and IPTV platform that also improved public displays and digital signage. As a result, the core system components deliver a range of improvements to visitors and those who work on the Estate.
We have been advised that the detailed costs are commercially sensitive.
However, high level costs are as follows:
Items
£
Combined IPTV and Digital Signage system hardware and servers (fully resilient), video and audio distribution amplifiers, encoders and interface equipment, perpetual licences
£179,000
Digital signage units and set-top boxes
£29,000
Cabling and network switches
£25,000
Total
£233,000
