NEC throws hat into IPTV ring

Mar 25, 2008 8:57 AM

    

NEC will launch a full-scale IPTV business with high-profile NGN (Next Generation Networks) carrier applications.

Providing end-to-end IPTV solutions and video delivery systems to communication carriers, NEC will expand this business to the international market. The company will draw on its NGN know-how and experience with broadcasting technology.

The company intends to take several steps to advance its IPTV goals, including:

  • delivery of end-to-end IPTV solutions using NEC products, from network architecture to delivery servers and household terminals;
  • release of the NC7500-VD VOD video delivery server in April as the core system for new IPTV solutions; and
  • adopt CASCADE's QualiTVision middleware, used for IPTV deployments in Hong Kong and Thailand.
