Envivio, a technology provider of IP video convergence encoding solutions from mobile to HD, and broadcast infrastructure provider National Grid Wireless are teaming up to deliver streamed TV, alongside VoIP and data, across a WiMAX network.
The network, which uses a full head-end with an Envivio Mobile TV encoder, will be available throughout the RAI Congress Centre during IBC2007 from September 7 - 11. Deploying the open systems-based solution enables mobile WiMAX operators to reach the three screens of video - TVs, PCs and mobile phones - and supports a variety of revenue generating business models by providing subscribers with anytime, anywhere connection capabilities.
From 3G to xDSL to WiMax, the Envivio mobile to HD encoders make video a reality over any type of network and to any multimedia device. Supporting a wide range of network protocols, resolutions, codecs, bit rates and devices, Envivio convergence solutions, like the one featured with National Grid Wireless at IBC2007, deliver video quality at the lowest bit rate.
Peter Mathers, CTO, National Grid Wireless, said, "Our experience and expertise in the design and deployment of shared networks within the broadcast sector provides us with a great foundation to meet the needs of the converged services of the future. This demonstration provides a great opportunity for us to showcase some of the leading media on the move technologies. Envivio, along with our other demonstration partners, have been critical to making this a success."
Julien Signes, President and CEO of Envivio Inc., said, "WiMAX is one of the leading access network contenders for future wireless services. Working with National Grid Wireless has given us an excellent venue to showcase the compatibility of our highly interoperable encoders with this access network. The encoders clearly work over any network regardless of the end device and can truly support a convergence-minded service provider."
