Belgian Telco Proximus has begun deployment of a new V7 decoder featuring applications for YouTube, Netflix, Spotify and Disney+.
Proximus Pickx has been developed by Technicolor Connected Home to help take the network service provider into the world of new applications and services.
“The Proximus Pickx decoder is a first in the European connected home landscape. Proximus has moved into the Android Operator Tier enabling new innovative features that create personalized experiences for Proximus subscribers,” said Thierry Demoor, Head of Digital Products & Solution Platforms, Proximus.
The receiver combines with the 3SS 3READY Android TV solution based on Android TV Operator Tier.
“We are keen to have an extended partnership with Proximus to enrich the entertainment offer in this market. Android TV offers the flexibility to incorporate new services with a fast time to market enhancing the customer experience for the users,” added Mercedes Pastor, Senior Vice President, Eurasia Customer Premises Equipment Business Unit, Technicolor Connected Home.
Search and navigation functions are available thanks to Google voice search and subscribers can view content in HDR 4K and access their recordings at any time via cloud storage. The solution also addresses the long-term sustainability objectives of Proximus, as the Pickx decoder operates on low power consumption levels.
