Gaming testing company Gaming Laboratories International announced the recent installation of its patented GLI Link product at the facilities of NYCE, Mexico’s gaming regulatory agency.
With GLI Link, suppliers can test against specific casino configurations in their local lab, in their own time zone. Interoperability testing can be performed on any game with virtually any system from any GLI lab in any time zone, in Asia, Europe, Latin America or anywhere on the globe, and GLI can interface devices to a variety of systems that are operating in any major casino in the world.
“As technology has advanced, and now that systems are providing electronic funds transfer and TITO, interoperability is more important than ever, and more and more jurisdictions are requiring this type of testing,” said GLI Director of Latin American Development Karen Sierra-Hughes. “Taking into consideration the growth in the Mexican markets and the various systems being utilized by casinos to better administrate their operations, GLI Link is a natural solution for system and gaming suppliers to take advantage of a testing environment where the communication among their products can be verified.”
This installation will be placed in the Mexico City IT-Cluster, where NYCE has a functional office with enough infrastructure to serve the entire country through a high-speed connection, embedded security and 24/7/365 service.
NYCE engineers have been trained by GLI’s experts, and will have continuous direct contact with GLI to support and fix any kind of trouble.
This is the second GLI Link environment available for the Latin American Region. The first installation was completed and is available now in GLI’s South America laboratory in La Plata, Argentina.
“With a wide range of international suppliers providing products in this jurisdiction, GLI Link is a perfect solution, eliminating the problem of shipping devices and systems to locations around the world,” said Salvador Sanchez, NYCE’s director of operations. “GLI Link operates remotely, meaning there is no shipping of devices, saving time and money. Further, GLI Link creates a ‘real world’ environment that provides a sense of security and lowers support costs for equipment providers around the globe.”
