With our modular solution, we offer both large and small operators the opportunity to quickly start a future-proof TV service. In this way, they bring their customers state-of-the-art entertainment under their own brand into their living rooms in the shortest possible time. As a driver for fibre optic expansion, IPTV is also the future of regional providers. With a comprehensive product portfolio and all services from a single source, end customers receive everything they want directly from their local provider.”
