Deutsche Telekom is planning to provide a standardised ‘multi-tenancy’ digital TV platform, deploy two standard set-top models across its CEE footprint and provide a cloud-based user interface to serve legacy set-tops, as part of wider plans to leverage its multinational scale in the region.
Speaking on a panel session at Digital TV CEE in Budapest yesterday, Thomas Staneker, head of TV, technical service centre, Magyar Telekom said that Deutsche Telekom planned to deliver TV via a pan-European network, which would encompass linear and OTT services, including potentially third-party services. A ‘multi-tenancy’ model will enable different services to share a common platform, allowing for extensive localisation of the service.
