ILC Teams with Envivio to Help Service Providers Rollout IPTV Services

 

SAN DIEGO, CA, Nov. 10, 2005/Satnews Daily/ — MPEG-4 equipment vendor Envivio has chosen ILC’s MaxView network control software to add sophisticated network management to its broadband solutions.

 

ILC said by combining ILC's network control software MaxView with Envivio's complete line of MPEG-4 encoders, middleware and decoders, the two companies have created solutions that allow service providers to quickly and cost-efficiently rollout and fully manage premium IPTV services such as video on demand (VoD), digital video recording (DVR) and interactive TV (iTV).

 

Envivio said it has deployed a MaxView-managed solution at Japanese satellite broadcaster mbco, the first to deliver digital radio and video programming to mobile subscribers. MaxView's sophisticated network management and automatic redundancy switching combined with Envivio's encoding systems minimizes its bandwidth costs and ensures service availability for mbco.

 

While analysts expect IPTV services to generate more than $600 million in 2009, ILC and Envivio Inc. have already teamed to help service providers make these predictions a reality, ILC said.

 

 “Integrating our line of MPEG-4 systems with MaxView enables broadcasters and telcos to better manage and assure 24/7 delivery of subscriber services,” said Julien Signes, president and CTO of Envivio Inc.

 

ILC President and CEO Richard Graham added ILC systems offer broadcasters and telcos open standards-based solutions that can be tailored to their IPTV deployments."
