Scopus' solutions selected by Dialog Telecom in Poland(Telecomworldwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Scopus Video Networks (Nasdaq:SCOP), provider of digital video networking solutions for cable network operators, announced on Wednesday (4 March) that Dialog Telecom, an independent telecommunications operator based in Poland, has launched its new IPTV service using a video distribution network based on Scopus video networking solutions. Dialog's new IPTV video distribution network features the Scopus Eldorado NMS (Network Management System), which reportedly offers redundancy and a centralised view of the entire network to simplify troubleshooting. It also helps Dialog engineers maintain consistent, high-quality transmissions for 24 channels. Also, Scopus' IRD-2900 series integrated receiver decoders receive satellite video feeds carrying both Polish and international content. Scopus UE-9000 encoders then provide local content encoding for distribution of the video to viewers' homes over IP. The IPTV network was installed by SATLAN, a systems integrator serving the IPTV and cable industries in Poland. Dialog's new IPTV service adds video on demand (VOD) and personal video recorder (PVR) services that, combined with IP telephony and high-speed Internet access, give Dialog a complete triple-play offering. Financial details were not available. ((Comments on this story may be sent to [email protected])) Copyright ? 2009 M2 Communications Ltd. |
