Entone Expands Hybrid TV Portfolio With Integrated Cubiware DVB/IP Solution
Market Leaders Unveil Ready-to-Deploy Hybrid Solution for Delivering High-Quality HDTV Service & OTT Content at IBC2010
Cupertino, California & Amsterdam, The Netherlands - Entone, Inc., a leading provider of Hybrid TV and Connected Home solutions, announced today that its new line of hybrid devices is integrated with Cubiware’s CubiTV middleware. The combined solution offers service operators an engaging, customizable user interface that brings together high-definition (HD) TV programming and over-the-top (OTT) content and services.
Cubiware’s CubiTV is a flexible DVB/IP middleware solution that enables cable, satellite and terrestrial television operators to provide interactive and on-demand services. With the use of CubiTV, operators can supply viewers with a compelling service offering that includes linear and on-demand programming, interactive electronic program guide (EPG), DVR, over-the-top services, online games, Web browsing and more. Subscribers can access detailed account information such as user profile, subscription fee and detailed account payment history, right from their TV set. CubiTV uses a unique system of menus that allows the user to quickly navigate and search through large libraries of TV and on-demand content offerings.
“Service operators can now differentiate themselves by incorporating over-the-top content as part of their managed service offering while providing their subscribers a more seamless user experience,” said Jakub Gorski, CEO of Cubiware. “Partnering with a market leader like Entone further expands our market reach and enables operators to quickly and easily deploy advanced, revenue-generating services.”
Entone’s family of hybrid devices provide a robust and flexible platform optimized for delivering Digital Video Broadcast (DVB-C, DVB-S2, DVB-T) and streaming services, such as OTT video and Web media services. These hybrid devices support advanced video and audio formats, including MPEG-4 (AVC/H.264), MPEG-2, VC-1, Dolby Digital, Windows Media, and MP3. They also offer popular networking technologies such as HomePNA, WiFi, MoCA and HomePlug for hassle-free installation and setup. These high-performance hybrid devices easily integrate with existing home networks and broadband services for enabling personal media sharing throughout a subscriber’s home. Entone hybrid devices allow service providers to increase their subscriber base and generate more revenue by offering subscribers more compelling services.
“As a market leader in IPTV, Entone’s focus has always been to enable users access to their media content – whether in the home or in the cloud, without requiring new wiring or set-tops at each TV set,” stated Bart Vanderostyne, Director of EMEA at Entone. “Our fully integrated solution will enable operators to accelerate their time to market, while at the same time, offers them the opportunity to be a part of the end-to-end value chain rather than a commodity bandwidth provider. We are delighted to be collaborating with an innovative partner like Cubiware.”
Product demonstrations of Entone’s new hybrid devices can be seen at IBC2010 in Amsterdam at the Entone stand (Connected World, stand IP-503) and at the Cubiware stand (Hall 4, stand C79).
