According to video streaming solutions provider Optibase, the deployment of encoders will be the industry’s first to enable large-scale IPTV in India. MTNL is targeting the service at their 3.9 million subscribers in conjunction with Time Broadband Services Limited as their video tier partner.
Lior Fite, Optibase’s vice president for marketing, said: We are proud to be among the first companies to take part in the implementation of IPTV in India. Optibase has recently opened an office in India to support its sales and marketing activities and is reaping the first fruits of this endeavor.
He continued, Equipped to meet the challenges of IPTV, our MGW 5100 has been designed to meet the unique requirements of the various operators and service providers – from MPEG-2 migration to MPEG-4 AVC digital head end system deployment. We look forward to being part of the IPTV momentum now taking place in the region.
