Northern German service provider Lünecom Kommunikationslösungen GmbH has tapped IPTV systems provider Ocilion to deliver TV services to its customers.

Lünecom has been supplying the regions around Lüneburg, Uelzen, Lüchow-Dannenberg, Gifhorn and the North Frisian Islands with broadband networks and individual solutions for commercial, municipal and private requirements since 1995.

Using the cloud solution from ocilion, Lünecom is now delivering a TV product under its own brand LCTV. This includes an individual user interface, time-shifted television, 4K set top boxes, a mobile app, channel packages and other functions.

LCTV project manager at Lünecom, Lars Grodtmann said: “We are delighted to be able to offer our customers a TV product that – in addition to the large variety of channels and high picture quality – offers these many additional and very useful functions. The trend towards non-linear television will continue to gain momentum. As a strongly customer-oriented company, we can now adequately meet this demand on our high-performance networks. ”

Managing director Ocilion Hans Kühberger: “With Lünecom, a real pioneer for fiber optic technologies relies on our cloud solution, which not only supplies the mainland but also the North Frisian Is-lands with broadband. With the existing infrastructure, your own IPTV product is predestined and strengthens the broad product portfolio, while the further expansion of fiber optics is pushed for-ward.”
