Alticast Shows Service Providers how to Simplify the Delivery of New, Multiscreen Services at CABSAT 2015

Alticast Demonstrates Latest Solutions at MENA’s Leading Service Provider Conference

Dubai – February 23, 2015 – Alticast, a global partner for the delivery of media entertainment, will demonstrate how its latest solutions enable satellite, cable, terrestrial and telecommunications providers to simplify the development and delivery of innovative, personalized, multiscreen video experiences at the upcoming CABSAT 2015 show (March 10-12) at Dubai’s World Trade Centre, in stand A7-30, Hall 6.

“Service providers throughout the Middle East are striving to offer their subscribers new compelling viewing experiences and CABSAT 2015 is the perfect venue for Alticast to introduce itself to the MENA market and to demonstrate how our advanced solutions enable them to meet their goals while containing costs,” said Tiaan Schutte, Alticast’s President for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).  “Our solutions overcome the inherent complexity of multiscreen video delivery to truly simplify the deployment of new features, enabling service providers to focus on innovating the viewing experience for their subscribers.”

Alticast’s key CABSAT 2015 demonstrations will include:

·          AltiView 2™, Alticast’s advanced user experience (UX) dynamically presents the UI based on subscribers past viewing behavior and leverages real-time viewing statistics from the total viewing base to highlight trending content. This approach maximizes content discovery while minimizing user interaction, thereby driving content consumption while embracing the traditional lean-back TV viewing experience.

·          Alticast’s Cloud UI application provides a thin client/server model for delivering the user experience to all devices in the home. This architecture reduces demands on the STB processor and memory by pre-processing the UI in the Cloud, enabling cable operators to use ‘thin client’ STBs.  Operators can take advantage of Alticast’s Cloud UI to deploy new user experiences (UX) much quicker. It also provides the opportunity to present a variety of UX in a household, for example a child-based, a sports or a movie experience.

·          Alticast staff will also brief attendees on an end-to-end solution that is comprised of the AltiView 1 fully featured UX, AltiPlatform™ market proven middleware, AltiProtect™ integrated content security and AltiPlex Cloud Services Platform which performs all the ‘heavy-lifting’ for delivering a robust user UX. This package is easily operator branded and includes a broad set of features to select for extending a variety of services to the subscriber.
