Telekom Austria is one of the most innovative IPTV providers in Europe. The operator’s MediaBox interconnects the TV set, mobile phone and PC allowing any image, video or music file stored on the computer to be easily retrieved and accessed on any screen. Ericsson will exchange and enhance Telekom Austria’s current IPTV platform in order to deliver blended content services to multiple devices which will eliminate barriers between TV set and PCs and introduce a new generation user interface.

As well as prime integration and consultancy services, Ericsson will provide a complete solution to Telekom Austria including its award-winning IPTV middleware, OpenStream Digital Services Platform for video-on-demand and WatchPoint Content Management System to address the challenge of delivering the same content in different formats, to multiple devices.
