Advanced Digital Broadcast has been selected to supply IPTV STBs to SeaMobile. ADB's advanced WAV-2500W units are enabling SeaMobile to deploy interactive, digital video services on their client's cruise ships - the new services will allow guests to access a wealth of video and interactive entertainment services including IPTV and VoD.

The contract marks another achievement in ADB's progress in the IPTV market in North America, where it has already supplied IPTV products to over 90 independent operating companies. It also marks the company's first incursion into the at-sea marketplace.

ADB's WAV-2500W STB is an advanced IPTV STB enabling services to be distributed from a central head-end to individual guest rooms cost effectively, and will serve both European and American applications. The new service will provide a combination of live video received on-board by satellite signal, stored content and VoD distributed over Ethernet. SeaMobile provides VSAT satellite communication systems and many services like the ability to use mobile phones, personal computers, and receive daily newspapers while at sea. The company is the leader in the maritime industry, serving cruise lines, ferries, yachts, commercial ships, the offshore energy industry and the government and military. SeaMobile has recently added video services to their expanding portfolio of products for cruise lines through a SeaMobile division, Wave Entertainment Network.

Product deliveries have already commenced.
