European Telecom Operator Picks Tilgin's IPTV Technology
TMCnet Contributing Editor

Tilgin has won a trial order of its IPTV (News - Alert) technology from another major European telecom operator. The unnamed operator chose Tilgin’s architecture to create a TV service offering based on IMS .
 
Tilgin (News - Alert) said that this win is part of the operator's new IMS based IPTV deployment.
 
Tilgin’s IMS architecture is a “pre-Open IPTV Forum” software client and part of the company’s road-map to continuously offer the most advanced IPTV services.
 
Ola Berglund (News - Alert) CEO at Tilgin noted in a statement that in the last couple of weeks they have won several orders on IPTV technology from leading European operators, which confirms Tilgin's technological leadership and puts them in a strong position when their customers and other operators decide for a rollout of next generation of broadband services to the mass market.
 
As part of a global system integrator’s end-to-end solution, Tilgin will deliver its IMS TV client to enable the operator to deliver a wide range of new multimedia services. The solution will also enable the client to reduce the costs of network ownership and shorten time-to-market when the operator introduces new advanced and converged services.
 
IMS is a standardized architecture that enables operators to use IP networks for services combining mobile/wireless and fixed networks. By creating flexibility in the networks, IMS makes them more cost efficient and helps guarantee end-user quality.
 
Tilgin cited Ovum (News - Alert) Research data that more than 200 leading operators have invested in IMS networks.
 
Founded in 1997, Tilgin designs and delivers premier IP customer premises equipment (CPE) for advanced triple play and IMS-based services. The company recently won an order of High Definition IPTV technology from a major incumbent telecom operator in the Middle East.
