DIRECTV Advanced Entertainment PlatformYour brand on the screen
before the first channel.
AEP is DIRECTV for Business’s in-room platform: a home screen carrying your logo, your welcome message and your property information, with live TV, on demand, Netflix, Paramount+ with SHOWTIME and Music Choice behind it. We design it, install it and manage it as part of your system.
Five things on it.

Dish to rack to room.
Four steps, one team.
We do every step of that line.Headend, cabling, the boxes and the support call afterwards, on one account and one invoice.
Price it for my property →A patient room is not a hotel room.
Flip it and see.
Three other ways
to do this properly.
HD COM System on its own
The headend without the in-room platform: a straight commercial channel lineup for properties that want reliable television and nothing to learn.
DRE system
DIRECTV’s receiver-based approach, for properties where a box per room suits the building better than a headend build.
Streaming delivery
Where satellite is impractical, the lineup can run over the property network instead. We size the internet and the Wi-Fi to carry it.
It is one system.
These are its parts.
The welcome channel, the in-room platform and the headend behind them are designed, installed and supported by the same team, on one account and one invoice.
Send us your bills.
We will show you what is included.
Tell us the property and we will come back with the right platform for it, the channel lineup, the licensing it needs and a written proposal beside what you pay today.
