What Is IPTV? |
|
|
IPTV lets you stream televsion, radio and video channels within a building, around an organisation, or across several different sites.
By putting broadcast TV and your own audio-visual channels onto your IT computer network, IPTV from Netvue lets you simply and easily show TV and video anywhere.
|
|
|
|
You can add local video sources, such as DVD players or cameras, and have Video On Demand (VOD) programmes and your own TV channels streaming from your Video On Demand server.
IPTV combines TV distribution technology with IT data infrastructure, and is based on TV and IT industry standards. By using standard IT protocols to deliver video services, IPTV technology benefits from the continuous advances and improvements in IT technology.

IPTV Technology |
 |
|
|
IPTV combines TV compression technology and IT data technology to stream TV and video as a continuous flow of data packets on an IT network. IPTV successfully combines two established technology standards:
|
|
IP data addressing and transmission
|
|
MPEG digital television compression
|
|
The IPTV channel streams are distributed ONLY to the destinations that request a channel, by using multicast protocols. This ensures that bandwidth requirements on the IT network are minimised.
