TRIAX

What TRIAX does

TRIAX designs and manufactures hardware and embedded software for the reception, processing, and distribution of video, audio, and data signals, with headquarters in Treorchy, United Kingdom and R&D and manufacturing operations in Denmark. The company's portfolio spans digital TV headends (TDcH Compact Headend, TDmH Mini Headend, TDX, TDH), G.hn Wave 2 Ethernet-over-Coax (EoC) solutions delivering up to 1.6 Gbps over existing coax, GPON optical line terminals (TOLT-1201), satellite dishes and TdSCR multiswitches, Wolsey masthead and distribution amplifiers with 5G/LTE700 filtering, optical fibre transmission systems, network switches (TNS Series), HDMI modulators, and a software license ecosystem supporting IP streaming and content scrambling (Samsung LYNK DRM, Pro:Idiom, Philips VSecure). The architecture is built around a software-defined headend platform that enables continuous feature upgrades, stacking across units, and remote configuration.

TRIAX operates an exclusively trade-only B2B distribution model, selling through regional distributors and the TRIACOM Commercial Installer Partner Programme across more than 25 countries spanning the UK, Ireland, continental Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. End customers span hospitality, residential MDU/SFU, healthcare, education, and caravan park verticals, with named flagship deployments such as New Barns Caravan Park (140+ homes) and integration certifications including FRANSAT PRO, EICS, RED, and EN 303354.

The company generates revenue primarily through one-time hardware sales of European-manufactured equipment, augmented by perpetual software license fees for headend feature activations (IP-IN/OUT, DRM scrambling, Media Player, SNMP), and a 5-year limited warranty offering introduced in May 2025. ISO 9001:2015 certification applies to TRIAX UK Ltd, which is privately held with CEO Glenn Vaughan identified as owner; no external funding rounds, parent companies, or public listing are disclosed.
