HOUSTON, Oct. 3, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- On September 25, 2007, Data Call Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:DCLT) and LEIGHTRONIX, Inc. entered into an Exclusive Marketing Agreement, pursuant to which Data Call provided LEIGHTRONIX the exclusive rights to market its Direct Lynk Messenger System(tm), to PEG's. Today more than ever, municipalities, educators and public access entities are leveraging television channels to inform, educate, and promote their communities. These "PEG" (Public Access, Educational Access, and Government Access) Channels are being transformed with new digital video technology into a high quality, high visibility information portal that includes hometown news, local event coverage, educational programming, local arts programming, and local government project updates. This new technology also provides an incredibly powerful tool for Emergency Messaging, a way of instantly placing emergency messages over standard programming. The agreement between Data Call and LEIGHTRONIX, unites the best in PEG digital video systems with the best in fresh content.
PEG access is a government mandate that provides television production equipment, training, and airtime on a local cable system so members of the public, the educational system, and the government can produce their own shows and televise them to a mass audience.
Equipment available for public access broadcasting is evolving quickly. At its birth, the state-of-the-art PEG facilities were composed of racks full of analog tape decks and an automated video switching system. Recently, the low cost of digital production and distribution equipment, such as cameras, non-linear editing systems, digital video playback servers and new Internet technologies have made digital content production the norm. Additionally, the rapidly dropping cost of digital production and distribution gear has changed the way many PEG facilities operate.
LEIGHTRONIX is the leader in the PEG server industry, with thousands of systems in operation today. LEIGHTRONIX also provides powerful, cost-effective digital video solutions for:
* Campus Communications;
* Hospital Patient Education and Staff Training;
* Onboard Communications (Cruise Ships);
* Large Scale Corporate Communications Networks;
* Hotel / Motel / Restaurant Channels;
* Cable Television in Private Communities;
* Religious Broadcasters;
* Video Communications In Correctional Facilities;
* Video Communications For Government Installations; and
* Training Systems used in Homeland Security.
For over 25 years LEIGHTRONIX has provided powerful, affordable, and reliable video playback, recording, and automated switching solutions. LEIGHTRONIX solutions are being used 24/7/365 in a wide variety of applications.
Jim Ammons, CEO of Data Call, had the following to say about the agreement, "I'm really excited about the opportunity this agreement brings Data Call and LEIGHTRONIX.
