NDS, Winetworks To Deliver WiMAX Solution To DBS Operators
NDS and Winetworks said Sept. 7 the companies will be demonstrating at both companies’ booths at IBC 2005 in Amsterdam Sept. 9-13 an integrated “triple play” solution for DBS operators that allows direct-to-home satellite providers to offer telephony, broadband Internet, video-on-demand, interactive TV services and future mobile support over existing network infrastructure.
The system uses the Videoguard conditional access system to secure both DVB and Internet protocol (IP) video streams delivered simultaneously from satellite and WiMAX infrastructure.
