<strong>TV</strong> <strong>over</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Services<br />
With <strong>TV</strong> <strong>over</strong> <strong>IP</strong>, <strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong> gives hotels, hospitals, service<br />
providers and companies new ways of receiving free <strong>TV</strong> channels<br />
as a customised programme package and to broadcast them<br />
further within the internal network. All <strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong> free-to-air<br />
<strong>TV</strong> programmes are also available via <strong>IP</strong> for corporate customers;<br />
the programmes are transferred as <strong>IP</strong> multicast streams to<br />
the customer via optical fiber cables. The programmes are<br />
transferred continuously which means that channels can be<br />
switched without a delay, just as in analogue television.<br />
The optical fiber connection, with high uptime and stability<br />
levels, can be used simultaneously for data and voice services.<br />
<strong>TV</strong> <strong>over</strong> <strong>IP</strong> services are available in two versions: Broadcast for<br />
coax networks and Multicast for local data networks (LAN).<br />
The <strong>TV</strong> programmes are fed into the local coax network according<br />
to the DVB-C/DVB-T standard. For this purpose, the televisions<br />
must be equipped with a DVB-C/DVB-T tuner. If the existing<br />
televisions do not have a DVB-C tuner, then replacement with<br />
the newest generation HD-ready and energy-efficient televisions<br />
is recommended.<br />
In addition to <strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong>'s range of programmes, in-house<br />
content such as a local information channel can be fed using an<br />
<strong>IP</strong>-MPEG stream. Once separated from the higher level <strong>upc</strong><br />
<strong>cablecom</strong> HFC network, the range of the internal HFC network<br />
can be used freely. The internal coax network can thus also be<br />
used for additional applications such as a local data network<br />
(LAN).<br />
In this service, the <strong>TV</strong> programmes are broadcast as analogue<br />
PAL signals or as digital DVB-C/DVB-T signals <strong>over</strong> existing coax<br />
cables. No set-top boxes are required in the hotel or hospital<br />
rooms. As is the case today, the <strong>TV</strong> programmes are broadcast<br />
<strong>over</strong> the internal hotel or hospital coax network using <strong>TV</strong> Broadcast.<br />
The existing internal coax network need neither be adapted<br />
nor replaced.<br />
In this service, the <strong>TV</strong> programmes are broadcast as <strong>IP</strong> multicast<br />
streams or - with an <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> solution - via an internal LAN infrastructure.<br />
With this option, the <strong>TV</strong> programmes are directly accessible as <strong>IP</strong><br />
multicast streams at the service access point. The <strong>IP</strong> multicast<br />
streams serve as a feed for an in-house <strong>TV</strong> solution, such as for<br />
implementation on a coax network or as a feed for an <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong><br />
solution.<br />
The <strong>TV</strong> programmes are fed as analogue PAL signals into the<br />
local coax network. This option is the ideal complement to the<br />
<strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong> range of analogue programmes. The range of<br />
analogue programmes can thus be specifically enhanced by<br />
programmes in the digital range. This option should be used for<br />
up to ten additional programmes (maximum). Along with the<br />
optical fiber connection, the existing coax connection must also<br />
be retained.<br />
With an <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> solution, the televisions are connected to the LAN<br />
via an <strong>IP</strong> set-top box. The <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> service is advantageous wherever<br />
additional services such as Internet and Voice <strong>over</strong> <strong>IP</strong> (Vo<strong>IP</strong>)<br />
are on offer. <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> permits greater flexibility in terms of the<br />
integration of additional video services such as Video on Demand<br />
(VoD) and the layout of the user interface. The arrangement<br />
of the programmes and language of the user interface, for<br />
example, can thus be easily changed remotely. <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> solutions<br />
are not offered directly by <strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong>. <strong>upc</strong> <strong>cablecom</strong> cooperates<br />
with partners who offer <strong>IP</strong><strong>TV</strong> solution.
