Future Of IPTV In India
Future Of IPTV In India
Introduction Internet Protocol television (IPTV) is a system through which digital television
service is delivered using the architecture and networking methods of the Internet Protocol
Suite over a packet-switched network infrastructure, e.g., the Internet and broadband
Internet access networks. Instead of being delivered through traditional radio frequency
broadcast, satellite signal, and cable television (CATV) formats
IPTV services may be classified into three main groups:
Live television, with or without interactivity related to the current TV show;
Time-shifted programming: catch-up TV (replays a TV show that was
broadcast hours or days ago), s tart-over TV (replays the current TV show from
its beginning);
Video on demand (VOD): browse a catalog of videos, not related to TV
programming.
IPTV is dist inguished from general Internet-based or web-based multimedia services by its
on-going standardization process (e.g., European Telecommunications Standards
Institute) and preferential deployment scenarios in subscriber-based telecommunications
networks with high-speed access channels into end-user premises via set-top boxes or
other customer-premises equipment.
Many different definitions of IPTV have appeared, including elementary streams over IP
networks, transport streams over IP networks and a number of proprietary systems.
The official definition approved by the International Telecommunication Union focus group
on IPTV (ITU-T FG IPTV) is as follows:
"IPTV is defined as multimedia services such as television/video/audio/text/graphics/data
delivered over IP based networks managed to provide the required level of quality of service
and experience, security, interactivity and reliability."
Another official and more detailed definition of IPTV is the one given by Alliance for
Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS) IPTV Exploratory Group on 2005:
"IPTV is defined as the secure and reliable delivery to subscribers of entertainment video
and related services. These services may inc lude, for example, Live TV, V ideo on Demand
(VOD) and Interactive TV (it). These services are delivered across an access agnostic ,
packet switched network that employs the IP protocol to transport the audio, video and
control signals. In contrast to video over the public Internet, with IPTV deployments,
network security and performance are tightly managed to ensure a superior entertainment
experience, resulting in a compelling business environment for content providers,
advertisers and customers alike."
One definition for consumer IPTV is for single or multiple program transport streams
(MPTS) which are sourced by the same network operator that owns or directly controls
the "last mile" to the consumer's premises. This control over delivery enables a
guaranteed quality and also allows the service provider to offer an enhanced userexperience such as better program guide, interactive services etc
In commercial environments IPTV is widely deployed for distribution of live TV, video
payout channels and Video on Demand (VOD) material across LAN or WAN IP network
infrastructures.

IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) delivers television programming to households via a
broadband connection using Internet protocols. It requires a subscription and IPTV set-top
box, and offers key advantages over existing TV cable and satellite technologies. IPTV is
typically bundled with other services like Video on Demand (VOD), voice over IP (VOIP) or
digital phone, and Web access, collectively referred to as Triple Play.
Because IPTV arrives over telephone lines, telephone companies are in a prime position to
offer IPTV services initially, but it is expected that other carriers will offer the technology in
the future. IPTV promises more efficient streaming than present technologies, and
therefore theoretically reduced prices to operators and subscribers alike. However, it also
adds many advantages that may play into market pricing.
One of the advantages of IPTV is the ability for digital video recorders to record multiple
broadcasts at once. According to Alcatel, one leading provider, it will also be easier to find
favorite programs by using "custom view guides." IPTV even allows for picture-in-picture
viewing without the need for multiple tuners. You can watch one show, while using picture-
in-picture to channel surf!
IPTV viewers will have full control over functionality such as rewind, fast-forward, pause,
and so on. Using a cell phone or PDA, a subscriber might even utilize remote
programming for IPTV. For example, if a dinner function runs longer than expected; you
don't have to miss your favorite program. Just call home and remotely set the IPTV box to
record it.
However, the real advantage of IPTV is that it uses Internet protocols to provide two-way
communication for interactive television. One application might be in game shows in which
the studio audience is asked to participate by helping a contestant choose between
answers. IPTV opens the door to real-time participation from people watching at home.
Another application would be the ability to turn on multiple angles of an event, such as a
touchdown, and watch it from dual angles simultaneously using picture-in-picture viewing.
IPTV is Internet Protocol Television. It is digital television delivered on TV (and not PC)
through high speed internet (broadband) connection. In this service, channels are encoded
in IP format and delivered to the TV through a set top box . IPTV service also includes
video on demand, which is similar to watching video CDs/DVDs using a VCD/DVD player
How does it work?
IPTV converts a television signal into small packets of computer data like any other form
of online traffic such as email or a web page. There are three main components of IPTV.
TV and content head end, where the TV channels are received and encoded
and also other content like videos which are sorted.
The second component is delivery network, which is broadband and landlinenetwork provided by a telecom operators such as MTNL.
The third component is set top box, which is required at the customer location.
The packets are reassembled into programming by software in the set-top box.
This box is connected between the operators broadband modern and
customer TV
What are the advantages and limitations of IPTV?
The quality of digital video and audio is much better compared with the
traditional analogue TV. With additional features, it can become interactive.
For example, viewers may be able to look up a player history while watching a
game. They also may be able to schedule a recording of their favorite
programmed when they are not home. With video on demand, they can browse
an online movie catalogue and watch the movies instantly. Using standard
networking protocols, IPTV promises lower costs for operators and users.
Using set-top boxes with broadband internet connections, video can be
streamed to households more efficiently than cable.
However, since IPTV is based on internet protocol, it is sensitive to packet
loss and delays if IPTV connection is not fast enough.
When was IPTV service first used ever?In 1994, W orld News Now was the first
television show to be broadcast over the internet, using the video conferencing
software. Internet radio company AudioNet started the first continuous live web
cast in January, 1998.
When was it rolled out in India?Public sector operator Mahan agar Telephone
Nigam (MTNL) is the first and only telcom in India providing IPTV services. It
rolled out IPTV early this month in Mumbai and Delhi. The original 26 channelsit launched were free-to-air, while the new lineup includes premium
subscription channels. It has not yet announced tariff plans, which will vary
depending on the number of channels a user subscribes to and the use of
premium services.Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is rapidly being deployed
as a compliment service to existing distribution technologies

Why IPTV?
Traces the changes in Internet Protocol Television since the mid-1990s and
examines what IPTV means today. The author analyzes what delivery of TV
over an IP network means, both in terms of possibilities for new services, and
in terms of the impact on the network and how it has to be managed. In
addition, Why IPTV? Helps you understand how introducing IPTV into the Web
2.0 world will impact the new services. It looks at the current trends in the
consumer electronics industry as well as the network industry, and describes
how the new technology can enhance and extend the existing business
models in the TV industry, particularly in advertising; and also how it creates
new possibilities, for instance, through personalization.
Interactivity, Technologies, Services:
Provides an accessible introduction to IPTV.
Covers the technology to build IPTV systems, and shows what lies
beyond traditional business models and existing distribution
technologies.
Considers how IPTV technologies can exploit and change the
current trends in consumer electronics and network industry
The computer has invaded almost all sectors of our lives. No place
or situation today is bereft of the use of computers. The computer
technology invaded the idiot box in our living room some time ago
with digitalization in the form of direct-to-home (DTH) high quality
digital pictures. Now, another computer technology has affected
the idiot box in a new way. This technology proposes the
discarding of antennas, cable TV wires, and the DTH set top box to
bring to you television viewing through the internet.
This technology is known as the Internet Protocol Television (IPTV)
technology. IPTV delivers digital television service through a
system that delivers broadband connection to our homes. IPTV is
an acronym for Internet Protocol TV. It essentially is a technology
that delivers video or TV broadcasts over the Internet. Instead of
receiving television or video over the broadcast waves, cable lines
or through a satellite TV service, your TV is hooked directly into a
broadband Internet router and receives digital signal directly over
the Internet.Many analysts have stated that IPTV is definitely the
trend for the future of television broadcasts. Many broadband
operators, telephone companies and cable companies that already
pipe in broadband Internet to homes can easily add this service
Advantages
There are many advantages of IPTV over current digital or over the
air broadcast TV signals; here are a few of them. Integration
Integration can be a great way for many companies to offer several
services in one integrated package. For instance, IPTV can also be
packaged with normal broadband Internet as well as Void (Voice
over Internet Protocol). All these services can be over one line sent
directly to the consumer. This means that costs can be reduced
and the consumer only has to deal with one provider instead of
possibly three, making it more convenient. Switched IP Most home
owners don't realize that cable TV broadcasters and Satellite TV
broadcasters generally send all television signals at one time and
then the consumer chooses which signal to show on the television
set. This means that lots of bandwidth is used unnecessarily. With
switched IP (IPTV uses switched IP technology), the entire
process is more efficient. All the TV data is held in a center
location and only the channel that the consumer at home chooses
is piped in. This means much more bandwidth for either better
quality broadcasts or the ability to add much more data choices
due to the fact that bandwidth is no longer such a big issue
Interactivity
Interactivity is much easier to perform with IPTV than a normal
cable, satellite or broadcast TV system. Because IPTV is delivered
over the Internet where the consumer already has a modem in
place, it is extremely easy for data to move from the TV company
to the house, as well as data moving easily from the house back to
the TV company. There will surely be many innovations on how tobest interact between the consumer and TV company via
television. Some ways interactive TV is already used is to
purchase products directly from your TV set, such as buying items
seen on a commercial or even ordering pizza. Another way that
interactive TV can be used is by people requesting more
information from their TV set on a program that they watched such

1/5/14 News: Future Of IPTV In India
latest-topic-articles-news-bulletin.blogspot.in/2011/05/future-of-iptv-in-india.html 6/15
the United States is projected to see a larger movement
toward IPTV deployments, industry experts say, as
more residences transition from cable to wireless.
In Asian markets, such as Japan and Taiwan, IPTV is
pushing home networking like you would never believe,
said David Thompson, product marketing director of
Taiwan-based Zexel, which also has a headquarters in
Anaheim, Calif. In North America it is now very
common for most homes to have a wireless router,
IPTV technology is now changing the way many are
viewing video media. Offering many benefits oversatellite or traditional cable broadcast methods; IPTV
utilizes the internet for the streaming of its content. The
resulting media can be customized to suit a number of
applications. For example, hospitals, schools, and
hotels can benefit in a big way from the capabilities this
service provides. The IPTV SolutionWhether you are
looking to add interactivity, broadcast to a large number
of people without added cost, or want to increase
picture quality and video choices, this new technology
can provide a solution for all of those demands and
more
In Hotels
For hotels, the benefits of IPTV technology are
tremendous. Depending on what you wish to offer your
guests, you can provide on-demand and live access to
movies, television shows, and even games. You have
the option to provide these free of charge to every room
or else to charge based on each selection. For hotel
guests, having on-demand capabilities is much more
convenient than traditional television as they are
constantly in and out of their rooms, making it difficult
to watch a particular program at a set time. You will
also have the ability to broadcast hotel information as
well as giving guests the facility to view their billing
details via the television.
In Schools
IPTV technology can also be useful in school settingsas well. Instead of basic morning announcements over
the traditional P.A. system, IPTV makes it possible to
broadcast video content that reaches every room
throughout the school. This is also useful for sharing
educational video content with many classrooms at
once, without the need to shuffle around videos and
DVDs. Instead, teachers can have access to a variety
of educational programs whenever they need them. This
technology also provides a number of options for
interactivity that will more likely than not be creatively
implement into many schools in the future.
In Hospitals
Another application for this technology is in hospitals.With a large number of patients and rooms, it can be
difficult to provide a variety of programming to suit
everyone's tastes. As patients are typically confined to
their beds for a long period of time, television and
movies provides a much-needed distraction through
entertainment. Although conventional cable systems
are not easily streamed to such a large number of
rooms, IPTV makes this possible at a very low cost,
without the need for extensive, invasive wiring running
throughout the building. With its increasingly growing
variety of applications, IPTV technology certainly
appears to be the television for the future. ave an
effective security infrastructure that can use the
technology and the law towards achieving the objective
of securing the information assets of the country
IPTV and the Future
Recently we have seen the emergence of cable
television over the Internet, or IPTV. In this article we

Void. This involves using your Internet connection
instead of your traditional phone line to make calls. It
had many advantages and disadvantages over
traditional phone systems. The technology was just
getting out the door when the article was written, and is
now readily available to nearly everyone. It still hasnt
caught on as much as I thought it would. It appears
most people are just using cell phones and ditching
their household phone. But now we are seeing another
common household feature moving to the Internet.
What it is? The name speaks for itself: IPTV, TV overthe Internet. Its a rather simple idea, though it's much
more difficult than it seems, as I will explain later.
Faster computers and quicker Internet connections are
making IPTV more of an option. As the technology
advances, we will see more IPTV with more channels
and HD support as well. Chances are that you have
probably even used IPTV without even knowing it. IPTV
first hit the Internet in 1994, right as the masses were
starting to get online. Back then it wasnt as abundant
as it is now, and most people probably never even knew
about it. Fast forward to 2008, and we have many
different types of IPTV, from ESPNs video highlights on
their home page to IPTV on your cell phone. IPTV has
really taken off and is still on a steep rise.
ABC was the first to use IPTV in 1994, and continues
to lead the way with IPTV. Their first show needed a
fast connection, special video conferencing software,
and had to be online during the time it was being aired.
Now ABC has their shows in full episodes online for
anyone to stream from their browser at any time. No
longer are you tied to the time the TV show airs to
catch it.
An IPTV deployment can involve a variety of things
depending on the system architecture used. Generally,
however, it involves new set-top boxes, usually MPEG-
4, some new headed equipment and a good deal of
systems integration. It also involves choosingmiddleware, conditional access/digital rights
management system and a variety of other related
applications that impact security, customer satisfaction
and system management.
A key challenge for the majority of IPTV service
providers, especially with a telecommunications
heritage, can be the lack of media related expertise.
Components of the IPTV architecture such as
conditional access, DRM, and middleware require
media specific systems integration and network
management capabilities. Smaller telcom and even
rural cable companies that have yet to upgrade to a
digital system will have to climb a steep learning curveto provide quality IPTV services. Strategic partnerships
with systems integrators that have installed head end
equipment and software can ease the deployment of
IPTV. Larger telcom should also consider these types
of partnerships as they move forward in their IPTV roll
out.
Program content acquisition can also pose a challenge
for an IPTV service provider that has no experience
working with media companies. Established
broadcasters have many decades of experience
commissioning and delivering content.
Telecommunication operators have none. The success
of telecom operators in the IPTV space can rely heavily
on their relationships with various content providers and
programmers. Bargaining power tends be a larger issue
for smaller operators than to a Verizon or AT&T, but the
ability to find new and innovative content can be
arduous for any sized company One area where telcom
are attempting to differentiate them from incumbent
Moss is with niche programming (often termed the long

tail in industry parlance). Demand for this type of
programming is evidenced by the success of video file
sharing, which largely consists of long tail content. The
ability for IPTV providers to acquire and use niche or
long tail programming may become a competitive
advantage
Convergence is now here with mobile, data, voice and
video all going over Internet infrastructure. In particular
the promise of TV delivered via IP is gaining momentum
globally the more the Internet merges with consumer
electronics, especially televisions. But plenty ofchallenges remain, not the least of which is the pending
depletion of the IPv4 address space. Experts predict
IPv4 addresses will be exhausted as early as 2010.
That's why the move is underway to the IPv6 protocol,
which provides significantly more address space for
devices. The move to IPv6 has been slow around the
globe, with a few exceptions. One of them is in Japan,
where deployment of IPv6 by telcom NTT could provide
a blueprint for carriers preparing for the rise of IPTV.
"NTT Pala Hiker TV is the first large scale commercially
successful IPTV over IPv6 service," said Cody
Chrisman, NTT America's director of product
engineering. "It has 76 channels of standard and high
definition TV over the network, over 10, 00 video on
demand tiles and 13,000 titles in their Karaoke service."
NTT Pala is a Japanese Internet service provider
operated by NTT. The company's Hiker TV deployment
is getting a demonstration at the Consumer Electronics
Show in Las Vegas this week as an example of IPv6
put to practical use. The Hiker TV deployment runs on
top of NTT's next generation IPv6 network, which
Chrisman noted delivers Internet service to 10 million
Japanese subscribers. The Hiker TV service currently
has penetration in the hundreds of thousands of users.
(The term Hiker is Japanese for light and refers to the
fiber optic cable to the home that carries the service.)
Consumers in Japan can buy set-top boxes that are
IPv6 enabled for Hiker. As well, Chrisman noted thatthere are also Hiker-ready TV sets in Japan from
Toshiba that integrate the set-top box capabilities
directly into the TV. This happens with Ethernet port
that plugs directly into users' TVs. Chrisman says the
need for IPv6 for IPTV delivery is obvious, given that the
IPv4 protocol is running out of room. By building out an
IPv6 deployment, NTT has more scalability to grow the
service and its functionality over time. In particular, one
thing that a unique IPv6 address will allow Hiker TV
consumers is end to end address transparency.
In North America and globally, Network Address
Translation (NAT) is used to take a public IPv4 address
and the provide a private local addresses, such that onepublic IP address could have many users and uses.
With IPv6 and its abundance of address space, NAT is
no longer required, which Chrisman argued enables
service providers to have a cleaner network architecture
that doesn't have to deal with NAT and some of the
potential connectivity problems that it poses. IPv6 with
its unique IP addresses for all also enables end to
security without NAT interference.
While the Hiker TV service is delivered over IPv6, it
does have compatibility with IPv4 based Internet
services as well. Chrisman explained that NTT tunnels
IPv4 addresses over the IPv6 backbone so users can
access IPv4 based content. With the advent of support
for HD (High Definition) resolutions on decoders, and
System-on-Chip (Sock) integrated decoders rather than
more cumbersome software solutions, the market had
begin to adapt IPTV-based interactive video services.
Today these services include Void (Video on Demand)
and EPG (Electronic Program Guide). But with
emerging next-generation networks and technologies,

the ground is ripe for introduction of full interactive video
services to residential and business customers based
on IPTV and IP set-top-box models
TELCO TV & IPTV Current Status
As consumers continue to search for complete service
packages that include voice, video and data, they will
naturally begin to conider telcom TV. In addition,telecom operators with significant broadband
deployments seeking new sources to generate revenue
will find IPTV-based telcom TV a natural extension of
current network infrastructure. IPTV is a system where
digital television service is delivered using IP network
infrastructure. In the residential market, IPTV is often
provided in conjunction with Video-on-Demand (Void)
and may be bundled with other Internet services, such
as Web access and Void. The commercial bundling of
IPTV, Void and Internet access is referred to as "Triple
Play." IPTV is delivered to residential subscribers using
an IP set-top-box (IP STB). The development and
delivery of value-added services is key to the long-term
viability of the telcom TV (IPTV) business model. These
services will be built upon IP Stubs that deliver full
interactivity. Todays IP Stubs allow only a limited range
of interactive services. These include Void (Video-on-
Demand), mentioned before, PVR (Personal Video
Recorders) and EPG (Electronic Program Guide).
These services are either already available, or in late
stages of development. Therefore, IP STB
manufacturers have very little to work with to
differentiate their IP STB offerings from the competition.
This is where the technology that enables
manufacturers to turn conventional IP Stubs into full-
fledged, live interactive video service platforms comes
in. Revisions technology plays an important role in this
trend and offers all the technology and expertise
needed to develop live face-to-face interactive videoservices on STB platforms. IP STB of the Future
Revisions vision is to transform the IP STB into a true,
interactive and rich communication center the
households communication epicenter. This can be
achieved by adding video conferencing technologies to
the IP STB itself, which enables a variety of new ways
to use the IP STB. According to recent market research
published by Frost & Sullivan (October 2006): "The
adoption of common standards for IPTV interoperability
is crucial if there is to be mass adoption of interactive
visual communications in the business and consumer
markets.
The implementation of open standards developed byvideo conferencing offers the means of connecting
these disparate islands of users in a manner similar to
that of the IM federation, which is already successfully
uniting the IM population." Not only should interactivity
not be limited to content; live interaction between
people is a springboard for an entirely new paradigm of

communication. Internet Protocol Television is the
newest technology on the block. It is often referred to
IPTV, which is television content broadcast through the
computer networks such as internet. Instead of the
traditional cable and broadcast formats, the viewers can
now watch television on the internet. The entire process
involves receiving and sending data by the means of the
packets of information. IPTV, pretty much uses the
same technology, although there are some minor
differences. Along with the packet conveyance
method, including the internet, IPTV is broadcast
through closed, separate networks, which are againdependent on the internet. This would provide better
speed, quality and usability as compared to satellite TV
or analog cable. Unlike the cable or satellite TV,
television on internet would provide only one single
channel that you pick from the programming guide,
which results in a faster and an efficient TV watching
experience. Due to this enhanced efficiency, IPTV is
able to provide a selection of programming features to
the audiences. A few of these features include the
onscreen caller id, the programming guides and the
hard-drive recording. Television on internet is convenient
and reliable. The sound quality is superior and with the
above mentioned interactive features, IPTV is becoming
exceedingly popular all across the world. In order to
maintain the uniformity of the broadcasts amongst the
providers, the channel broadcasts are going completely
digital, as the technologies continue to improve.
Furthermore, a lot of telecommunication carriers plan
on accelerating the deployment of IPTV services.
There are various IPTV forums which would allow you to
discuss the open standards of these technology
specifications. Internet is now just not the source of
information. But now it has also become a medium of
entertainment. Internet television is one of the offering
that internet delivers today. As the name suggests
internet television is a television service distributed via
internet medium. In simple terms viewers need to be
sitting in front of TV, holding the remote if they want tocatch your favorite show or sports. Instead they can
also watch it on their laptop or PC if it is connected to
the internet
IPTV is more Beneficial In terms Of Business:
Internet Protocol Television, or IPTV, is an exciting new
technology that is helping to create a far better means
of watching television. However, using IPTV for
business is without doubt going to change the way that
many businesses operate.
IPTV is NOT online videos or internet shows. This can
be extremely low in quality and require extensive
buffering. This service works the same way as VOIP
(Voice over Internet Protocol) phone services, andconnects people so that they have a 2-way connection
with television shows and networks. When live TV is on,
users can communicate with show hosts and
audiences through the 2-way communication.
This technology has a large number of uses. Generally
speaking, this technology is relatively new and is
designed for consumers, but business applications are
multiplied extensively. For example, there is a plan in
the works to release a private IPTV network within
McDonald's locations throughout Italy, allowing
customers to see unique video material, which includes
pre-recorded commercials, live sports, and other
shows. Hotel and hospitality services are going to see
the most use from this technology because it gives
them a chance to customize the content that they offer
to their guests. However, this service will be highly used
across the entire business world.
IPTV also gives people the chance to create a private
network of television entertainment and content that is

digital quality and doesn't have the bugs and buffering
issues of internet videos and web-based television. If it
helps you to compare this service to something, think
in terms of the closed-circuit televisions that we often
see used in schools and offices to limit the
broadcasting that is seen or to show advertisements
and dedicated television content as needed. Using the
internet-bandwidth connection provides excellent quality
images and much better production than analogue and
digital television utilizing cable services.
IPTV technology is the latest in innovations for getting
the daily communications that people thrive on andenjoy. You may have heard of the ever-popular Voice
over Internet Protocol (Void) phone service from
companies like Voyage. Well, to make this easy to
understand, IPTV is the same, only with television over
internet protocol, instead of voice. Ultimately, TV can
be watched anywhere through a broadband connection
with IPTV, which makes it a very popular choice for
those looking for the latest and greatest in new
technology. Telecommunications companies are
looking for new revenue, and they have found it with this
process.
IPTV technology is based on a system that is much
like cable. There is the need for a computer or a set-top
box of sorts so that the images can be transmitted,
decoded, and then sent out to the television in a format
that can show them properly on the screen. This type of
broadcasting can be done by a simple broadcast or
multicast if someone is trying to get a channel out to
everyone. However, it can also be done on an 'on
demand' basis, where people are able to stream
material to just one or two subscribers who have
requested the show or material in question
Maintaining the Technology
There is a lot of work and technology that goes into maintaining
IPTV technology. Streaming over broadband needs to be done
efficiently and in a format that will allow for the seamless transition
of the data that is being sent. The process for using IPTV involves a
lot of encoding, splitting, and distributing efficiently. The provider
end is very complicated, but for customers it is a simple tool to
use. Channel selection for IPTV is done via a membership known
as IPGMP, or IP Group Membership Protocol. Due to the data
transmission, this makes sending multiple channel signals and
changing channels much simpler than it might be otherwise.
IPTV is not only online videos or internet shows. This can be
extremely low in quality and require extensive buffering. This
service works the same way as VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)
phone services, and connects people so that they have a 2-way
connection with television shows and networks. When live TV ison, users can communicate with show hosts and audiences
through the 2-way communication.
This technology has a large number of uses. Generally speaking,

often see used in schools and offices to limit the broadcasting that
is seen or to show advertisements and dedicated television content
as needed. Using the internet-bandwidth connection allows for
higher quality images and better production than analogue and
digital television through cable services
This particular product is not quite at its peak yet, but is growing in
popularity. If you are looking for a better way to broadcast or
provide television to customers or employees, this might be a great
solution. The technology isn't going to be applicable to every
business, but it has many different applications that users can
appreciate in a business setting. If you have an interest in thelatest technology or if you currently have a VOIP provider for your
phone service, you may well want to consider IPTV as an
alternative to a standard satellite provider or cable network to get
improved quality, better customization, and plenty of other benefits
for your business needs.
IPTV network systems can be individually custom-built to fulfill the
unique demands of the hospitality and hotel market. Whether it's a
modest boutique guest house, luxury 5 star hotels or a sports
stadium, IPTV companies can supply the complete range of tools
you need to offer a complete IPTV hospitality service to your
guests.
What's the Advantage of IPTV in Hotels and Hospitality?
IPTV is what your valued hotel guests will expect and demand. It is
the future of any TV distribution in a hotel and with IPTV technology
in place, you will have a wealth of benefits: Distribute free to view
and subscription satellite or terrestrial TV signals throughout your
computer network to bars, guest bedrooms, public areas or
conference facilities within a hotel Offer extensive set of local and
foreign language TV and radio channel, in-house advertising

AT&T and Verizon have reported clear subscription increases in
their IPTV based services with AT&T reaching about 2.5 million
subscribers vis--vis Verizons 3.2 million mark. This means that
AT&T and Verizon have about 5% of the sum of Comcast cable
subscribers which are in the range of 20 million but the IPTV
subscription number is growing, and fast.
Many would agree that the North America IPTV services market is
still in embryonic form compared with, in sheer numbers, the very
popular, robust, and well proven and tradition cable based TV
service. On the other hand the latest information clearly shows that
a number of major operators, especially those with little or no
underlying cable network, are clearly favoring IPTV deployments.
With the fast growth in internet based technologies and general
trend towards converged and glued services, one expects that
internet based broadband services will grow. In addition, DSL
upgrades will eventually be replaced by longer distance VDSL
systems and fiber, allowing extraordinary bandwidths and speeds

at reasonable prices.
On the other hand, Europe is slowly but surely bridging the digital
divide and implementing full (and free) broadband digital television
services, in addition to the assortment of existing satellite
television services, while releasing the analog spectrum for other
uses
IPTV and the Digital Divide
Indeed competition for viewer attention and broadband multimedia
services will continue to increase. The key advantage of IPTV
based services perhaps, is that fact that the user can adapt thedesired service to fit his or her schedule, with minimal effort,
instead of trying to accommodate ones schedule to fit broadcast
times.
Interactivity is of course another key component, missing from
other services especially broadcast related ones.
In addition, the fact that IPTV is based on internet connectivity
means that the services and related technology can be interfaced
with other subsystems such as the IP Multimedia Subsystem.
Internet Protocol version 4 the fourth iteration of the Internet
Protocol (IP), is one of standard internet work-layer protocol used
and the first version of the protocol to be widely deployed on the
Internet. Going through the history during the early 1990s, it was
clear that IPv4 was not a long-term protocol.
Its design did not anticipate a number of requirements that turned
out to be crucial. Such requirements not only pertained to the
proliferation of devices, but also the need for additional security,
simpler configuration and better prioritization of some services,
such as real-time services (often referred to as Quality of Service
issues).
IPv6 multicast was adopted for the first time in the world in a
commercial IP TV service started on July 28, 2004. The 4th MEDIA
Service aims to attract 200,000 subscribers in the first year. It will
probably become the largest consumer IPv6 service soon.
In Japan, there had already been two IP TV services available:
BBTV by Yahoo! BB and Hiker plus TV by KDDI. A major
difference of 4th MEDIA with them in business model is that 4th
MEDIA is rather a horizontal business alliance.
4th MEDIA Service is a broadcasting and VOD service started by
Pala Networks, an NTT East group ISP business, in an alliance
with Online TV, a company established by Jupiter Programming
and others for this service. The business is supported by several
ISPs, including @nifty, BIGLOBE, and hi-ho, as well as Pala, for
user supports and fee collection
Pala Networks has provided IP phone operation for other ISPs. The
company started video service in a similar scheme. The fact that
4th MEDIA broadcasting uses IPv6 multicast means that each set
top box gets directly connected to IPv6. The deployment of a new
architecture becomes a need as well as a necessity. The transition
to IPv6 holds the future of the internet infrastructure. IPV6! Theprotocol is a robust technology designed as a successor to IP
version 4 (IPv4), the predominant protocol in use today. The
changes from IPv4 to IPv6 are primarily in the areas of expanded
addressing capabilities; header format simplification; improved
support for extensions and options; flow labeling capability; and
consolidated authentication and privacy capabilities.
The kind of communication that will be enabled by the advent of
IPv6 will be particularly useful in the embedded systems arena, as
millions of new devices take advantage of Internet connectivity.
Although IPv6 has been around for several years, there continues
to be a debate about its value. But there are many ways in which
IPv4 is not working, and there are good amount of reasons why the
migration of IPv6 is not only desirable, but necessary. Some of the
areas include reducing address space, Internet Security, Quality of
Service, auto configuration, wireless, IMAX the list are endless.
One of the important aspects of implementation IPv6 is that it will
remove any concern about the limitation of IP addresses. IPv6 uses
128-bit addresses, versus the 32-bit addresses used by IPv4.
Compared to the total possible number of IPv4 addresses, 4.29

billion, IPv6 provides nearly 600 quadrillion addresses for every
square millimeter on earth. That's 6x1023 addresses for every
square meter of the earth's surface.
When each device has its own unique global IP address and NAT
is no longer necessary, peer-to-peer communication will become
much easier. Two devices will be able to establish direct
communication without the need to translate between global and
private addresses. Two-way applications such as IP telephony,
video conferencing and gaming will be much simpler to develop.
Routing tables will become far less complex, which will enable
higher performance for Internet traffic and more bandwidth foradditional communication.
The Internet is expanding into many new areas such as mobile
Internet, IPTV and other IP embedded services which require more
and more new IP addresses every day. The growth of IP based
services and devices will stretch the current Internet protocol
beyond breaking point because in a few years, there will be no
more Imps available.
The main reason (and benefit) for IPv6 initial deployment is the
vastly increased address space compared to its predecessor IPv4.
To get a general idea, IPv4 currently supports approximately 232
which equal about 4.3 billion IP addresses. If you compare it to the
number of persons around the globe, it won't even be enough to
assign one single IP to every living person. IPv6, however, supports
2128 addresses. This is approximately 5x1028 for each of the 6.5
billion people alive today or the possibility to add an address to
each atom in the average person's body. I think that should be
enough for everyone.
Unfortunately, at the moment, the Internet is still dominated by
IPv4 and very few of the ISPs offer IPv6 connectivity. So, in order to
test the v6 protocol, you will have to create an IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnel
that will use the existing IPv4 infrastructure to encapsulate and
carry IPv6 packets. Such tunnels are widely deployed today. To
create a 6to4 tunnel, you will have to search on your favorite engine
for "ipv6 tunnel broker" and pick the one closest to you (evidently,
for low pings and high connectivity)
