In this article (4)
ZTE launched a new Big Video Premium OTT solution for operators at last week’s TV Connect 2017.
The new solution is designed to help operators cut costs and shorten time to market with OTT video offerings, while ensuring end-users have a quality video experience.
It incorporates technologies including multicast adaptive bit rate, cloud DVR and low latency technologies to provide video segmentation, aggregation and optimization capabilities.
The solution also supports just-in-time packaging (JITP), which packages and transmits content only upon subscriber request, so only one copy needs to be stored to cut down on storage, as well as and multi-digital rights management technology to reduce investment on terminal DRM licenses.
Operators will be able to adopt multiple potential business models to maximize profit-earning opportunities.
ZTE said it has to date deployed a big video ecosystem comprising more than 90 commercial offices with a total system capacity of 80 million and more than 100 CDN commercial offices with a total concurrency throughput over 100Tbps.
