The full service telco provider Lime has signed a contract with Amino Communications to supply enhanced set-top boxes to support the rollout of pay-TV services in the Caribbean.
Lime TV currently provides over 100 pay-TV channels and VOD to viewers in the Cayman Islands and Barbados.
The service will now introduce Amino’s A140 and A540 set-top boxes which will provide a better ’carrier class’ Wi-Fi signal to deliver entertainment around the home and enable customers to set up pay -TV for themselves, reducing the need for service engineers.
Commenting on the upgrade, Amino CEO Donald McGarva said: “This is an exciting and innovative deployment which demands devices that are ultra-reliable, future proof and capable of easy home installation. Combining our field-proven STBs with carrier class Wi-Fi will help LIME rollout services quickly and cost-effectively whilst at the same time supporting an exciting range of entertainment services.”
Dianne Bissoon, VP of TV and Entertainment at LIME added: “Pay-TV is an important and growing service for LIME and we are keen to introduce improvements like these set top boxes which help improve the experience we are delivering to our customers.”
Lime provides a range of telecoms services to the communities of 13 Caribbean islands.
