HaiVision’s Video Furnace is the premier package for end-to-end delivery of content for higher education and K-12 institutions. Video Furnace is ideal for delivering cable content in dormitories and across the campus, for providing video-on-demand content for use within classes and by students at their leisure, for launching campus TV stations, for making special classes or events available to everyone, and for recording classes and events for later review.

HaiVision has significant history in servicing the education market: within both higher education and K-12, and for IP video distribution as well as continuous presence style remote classrooms. HaiVision’s codec products were originally developed to serve state-wide initiatives to bring remote classes together – the forerunner of today’s telepresence conferencing. Video Furnace was initially developed in close collaboration with a number of leading universities including Northwestern, Dartmouth, and UCLA. A common thread to all of HaiVision’s development is that products must be very easy to deploy, manage, and use. When speaking with our clients, you will most often here “It just works!!”
