SatNews — Nagravision, a Kudelski Group (SIX:KUD.S) company, was selected by ONO, Spain’s leading broadband communication and entertainment provider, to secure its nexgen, hybrid television platform. The platform will be the first broadband/broadcast content delivery network in Spain, combining traditional Pay-TV services with the power of the Internet and delivered over ONO’s exclusive fiber-optic network.

Nagravision’s conditional access will secure all of ONO’s services, which are expected to feature existing value-added services such as video-on-demand and pay-per-view as well as new and advanced PVR functionality. The offer will combine ONO’s Pay-TV service with access to Internet-based content enabling ONO viewers to benefit from more content choices. The new agreement also further extends the relationship between both parties. Nagravision will provide security technology in addition to the existing information management (IMS) and content management systems (CMS) already used by ONO. The Nagravision latest conditional access will be integrated in all next generation STBs deployed by ONO including PVR platforms and traditional “non-PVR” STBs.
