Introduction
SIRCH (Samsung Interactive Remote Control for Hospitality) is a professional interactive remote controller for DTV that
lets you deliver TV firmware updates, cloning data, and channel mapping changes to several hundred hospitality TVs
simultaneously. Mounted at the broadcast head-end system in hotels, motels, resorts, hospitals, and apartment buildings,
it delivers modulated RF control signals to hospitality sets in each guest room through coax cable.
SIRCH includes PC embedded systems and cable RF modulators which have DVB-C (Europe) and OpenCable (North
America) RF output. It also has a 40GB Solid State hard drive, and a 100/1000 Base-T Ethernet port which lets you load
TV firmware updates.

SIRCH is sold separately.
