When deploying Full Service Networks (FSNs) that offer end-to-end voice, data and video services, carriers need video head end solutions that give them the competitive edge. The difference rests on reliability, availability, flexibility and quality of service.

Optibase's IPTV platforms give carriers that and more: By deploying Optibase's highly respected IPTV platforms, carriers can utilize regular phone lines to stream video over phone lines, over fiber and over DSL. Optibase's platforms support H.264 AVC, MPEG-1, MPEG-2 transmissions.

"As the system integrators for the project we valued the following characteristics in the MGW 5100 platform; it has a small footprint, yet easily scalable to support many more channels in the future, it offers all in one encoding and streaming capabilities, and is compatible with third party middleware packages.”

Gudjon Mar Gudjonsson, CEO of Industria.

MGW 5100 lets carriers stream top quality TV over broadband IP. MGW 5100 is a modular multi-service platform that encodes, transcodes, transmits and recasts MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG 4 AVC/H.264, MPEG- 4 or Windows Media video channels in real-time.

MGW 1100 provides encoding, transcoding,transrating (rate shaping)and recasting at the edge of service providers’ TV distribution network or at MDU access points,and offers low cost real-time TV streaming services for service providers.

MGW HD combines top quality HD video with the low bandwidth of MPEG-4 AVC. This enables operators to offer high quality HD content and maximize revenue per stream either as an HDTV premium package or as a bundled package with Standard Definition channels.

MGW 1000, an integrated TV streaming platform, is ideal for IP streaming applications such as IPTV distribution, video contribution, and corporate communications.

MGW 1000 offers superior video quality on a compact dual channel encoding platform, maintaining broadcast standards throughout the video contribution chain.
