Telefónica has selected ARRIS to develop a comprehensive range of new set-tops. The new platform follows a modular approach that leverages Telefónica's scale to deliver next-generation video services to its subscribers – simplifying deployment for all Telefónica businesses around the world.
The project takes ARRIS's and Telefónica's strategic partnership to a new level - building on past collaborations in Brazil and Spain.
The new, international set-top portfolio named "Proteus" will begin live roll-out in 2017 and will include set-tops supporting both wired and wireless, HD and UHD services, to be deployed with Telefónica's satellite DTH, cable, and IPTV technologies.
This new product family will give Telefonica the flexibility to bring new services to market, quickly and efficiently, through its scalable service architecture and low-maintenance design, said ARRIS.
Steve McCaffery, Managing Director of International Sales and Business Operations for ARRIS
We're strategically positioned to help service providers transform entertainment through the evolution of the set-top. And Telefónica's choice to have ARRIS develop its new platform represents the progression of a successful partnership that will bring next-generation services to millions of subscribers across Europe and Latin America.
