Kreatel Communications has launched a new IP-based set-top box with
a built-in DVB-T tuner that combines access to digital terrestrial
television, IPTV and enhanced services.
The IP-STB 1520, a hybrid set-top box that combines the stable
IP-STB features with a DVB-T receiver, offers access to free-to-air
broadcasts. Required bandwidth can also be reduced as RF cable can be
used for digital TV instead of IP multicast.
Premium television content can also be a part of the service
bundling, either offered in partnership with terrestrial broadcasters,
or offered by the operator over IP. All TV channels, regardless of
broadcast method, are seamlessly integrated in the same channel
table.
The IP/DVB-T hybrid set-top box is an addition to the product family
based on the Kreatel IP-STB 1500 platform, built around the ATI XILLEON
chip. All products in the IP-STB 1500 series enable operators to offer
IP services such as video on demand, e-mail, Internet, online games in
DSL and fiber networks.
