IBC 2008 – AMSTERDAM. Latens and ADB have jointly announced the integration of Latens ECOsystem 4.0 middleware with ADB’s 5810 receiver series.
In a statement the companies said the combination of ADB’s advanced high performance IP set-top boxes and Latens ECO 4.0 would offer viewers richer content, advanced graphics and an enhanced EPG.
“The integration was achieved using ADB’s SDK that was made available to our partners this year. A lot of effort was put to provide state-of-the-art features and performance APIs, so together we can deliver best in the class product operators. We are happy that ECO 4.0 is fully utilising the capabilities of our product, and we are already in discussion about further upgrades”, said Jim Lomax, Executive VP Worldwide Sales & Marketing, ADB.
IPTV operators need a proven and tested integration between the core elements of their offering; the tight integration of ADB set-tops with our ECO 4.0, combined middleware and conditional access, assures operators that the IPTV service they deploy will be a success, while reducing the additional cost and pain of integrations.” added Jean-Paul Heron, Client Integration Manager, Latens.
