According to Tilgin, together Tilgin and Nordija will provide an IPTV solution to their joint customer Tre-For, who has decided to deliver high definition (HD) IPTV to its subscriber base.

Nordija has been contracted by the Danish operator’s broadband subsidiary to provide IPTV middleware with additional adaptation to its requirements based on their choice of Tilgin’s IP set-top media center. Tilgin will provide its HD IPTV set-top solution, including its IPTV server software for large-scale IP networks, named MBS.

The broadband activities are organized in Tre-For Bredband and branded as Profiber in cooperation with other utility companies NRGi and Ostjysk Energi. The product range of Tre-For Profiber includes high speed internet, attractive TV programs and low-cost telephony on an optical fiber network, said Tilgin.

Bille Madsen, ITV manager at Nordija, said: In our common Tre-For Profiber project our companies have come very close and shown the potential to cooperate on similar IPTV projects. This collaboration will strengthen the value proposition for both parties and will be extended to other customers and deployments around Europe and the Middle East.

Ola Berglund, CEO of Tilgin, said: To partner with Nordija gives us better reach in Denmark and outside Scandinavia and at the same time a comprehensive offering to Danish operators wanting to bring the advantages of next generation broadband to its users. There are a number of similar fiber network operators all owned by regional utility companies in Denmark and we hope Tre-For’s HD choice and our collaboration with Nordija will open up for further discussions with the other utility-owned networks.
