LIME selects Juniper Networks media flow for multi-screen TV services

Juniper Networks announced that LIME, the Caribbean’s
telecom company, is deploying Juniper Networks Media Flow Controller to
underpin its TV and video services.

 

LIME, Cable & Wireless Communications’ (CWC)
Caribbean subsidiary, provides landline, Internet, mobile and entertainment
services to thirteen Caribbean countries.

 

“We will deliver superior TV services that give
subscribers a high quality of experience, one that is easy to use, and offers
the content consumers want to watch. The technology in our underlying content
delivery network is absolutely critical to achieving these goals, and that’s
why we chose Juniper’s Media Flow Controller. The Media Flow software solution delivers
exceptional performance and scale for the delivery of high-quality adaptive
streaming content,” said Patrick Bradd, Chief Technology Officer, LIME.

 

The new entertainment service will use adaptive bitrate

Internet connections, and LIME is using Media Flow to cache, distribute and

of our content and media technology portfolio and demonstrates our strategic
focus on growing our software business,” Manoj Leelanivas, executive vice
president, Junos Application Software Business Group, Juniper Networks.

video service, will be fully deployed initially in Barbados and Jamaica in
2012, with further Caribbean expansion to follow later in the year.
