Siemens to Deliver its First Home Entertainment Solution to Belgacom

Belgacom, the largest Belgian carrier, is planning a pilot of interactive digital television (iDTV) for this fall using an end-to-end turnkey solution from Siemens. The Belgian iDTV project is the first order for Siemens Surpass home entertainment.



For its TV-centric online services, Siemens is working with Myrio for the middleware to enable the application, nCube for the Video on Demand server, Verimatrix for content protection system, and Tandberg Television for the video broadcast equipment. http://www.siemens.com
