Making Cable Cool Again: BigBand Networks' Chief Architect demos multi-platform IP video delivery.
Connecting Video Content to Video Opportunity
IP video continues to grow as subscribers experience what's possible with today's expanding list of IP-enabled consumer electronic devices (PCs, game consoles, Blu-ray players, mobile tablets and phones, etc.) and ever-increasing personalized services.
While IP video offers a unique opportunity, it also presents deployment challenges as video delivery in the home moves beyond traditional set-top boxes. These challenges include delivering managed video services to this rapidly growing list of unmanaged consumer devices and finding the necessary bandwidth to serve the insatiable consumer demand for video anywhere, anytime, on any device.
Move, Manage and Monetize Now
BigBand Networks' IP video solutions meet these challenges quickly and cost-effectively, enabling you to quickly and cost effectively develop and expand your portfolio of next-gen video services while leveraging your existing network infrastructure. At the core lies our IP video product suite that includes BigBand Networks' vIP PASS™, and BigBand Networks' CVEx™ (Converged Video Exchange).
vIP PASS "wraps" video in DOCSIS® so you can deliver video streams to standard cable modems without transiting a CMTS. It also incorporates DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), letting you extend managed video services to heretofore unmanaged DLNA-compliant consumer devices. CVEx is the industry's first intelligent software video control plane, providing convergence between different video applications and end-user screens—a critical capability in next-gen video delivery.
Another "must have" element is bandwidth optimization. BigBand Networks' Switched Digital Video (SDV) lets you reclaim spectrum to enable new services such HD, 3D and IP video, while BigBand Networks' Switched Video Analysis (SVA) provides you with tools to help monitor, manage and optimize all stages of your SDV deployment.
Altogether, this is an IP video solution that's been proven in large-scale deployments and integrated with the required end-to-end solution elements for delivering high-quality managed IP video services. Moreover, it provides you with a faster time to market and lower OpEx and CapEx. Just another innovative way BigBand moves the pictures that move you.
