Thew deployment is aimed at growing customer demand for
multi-screen video services that can be enjoyed on connected TVs, PC/Macs,
smartphones and tablets with a significantly enhanced solution combining IPTV
and over-the-top (OTT) delivery.
“We are seeing other top-tier IPTV, satellite and
cable operators also evaluating their network migration strategies in order to
stay competitive in this new world of pay TV. Verimatrix is focused on helping
these services providers implement a flexible rights management strategy across
a combination of managed and unmanaged video delivery networks,” said Steve
Oetegenn, chief sales and marketing officer for Verimatrix.
The Verimatrix software-based revenue security solutions
are integrated components of Ericsson’s Multiscreen TV and Media Connect
platforms that will help extend Chunghwa Telecom’s brand and subscriber
relationship beyond the set-top box (STB).
The VCAS architecture provides a complete, integrated
suite of solutions to secure video delivery to traditional STBs and the widest
variety of Internet TV-enabled devices.
The flagship VCAS for IPTV and VCAS for Internet TV
solutions are key to this new generation of services, both upgrading the
existing delivery infrastructure and extending deployment reach with
multi-screen capabilities using state-of-the-art adaptive rate streaming
technologies.
