Huawei supplies hybrid video solution to cable TV operator Megacable

Telecom network vendor Huawei on Thursday said it supplied a hybrid video solution to Megacable, a cable TV operator in Mexico with 2.2 million pay TV subscribers.

The hybrid video solution will enable Megacable to increase their services in Guanajuato city.

Their subscribers will benefit from new services such as a digital video recorder, catch-up TV, fast channel change and other interactive services like accessing Facebook and Twitter through their television sets, said Huawei in a statement.

The Internet Protocol solution will enable Megacable when partnered with telecom operators to evolve from their current deployment via chimney pipes to a unified solution.

The convergent solution provides better coverage and is capable of supporting Internet Protocol TV over a managed network, over the top (OTT) services in an un-managed network, Hybrid DVB-C and multi-screen services.

In addition, the transformation will enable Megacable to compete with multi-service operators and reduce their operational costs.
