BNS has
been appointed by Indonesian telecommunications provider Multi Kontrol Nusantara to
design and procure a turnkey HD & SD IPTV service platform. BNS’s IPTV Service Platform
design will enable MKN to deliver high and standard definition video services, including
multicast, VOD, Network PVR, Time-Shift-TV, eShopping, games and others.
Built on a core fibre backbone, metro ethernet and various broadband access network
technologies, the network’s infrastructure will enable cost effective and highly reliable
delivery of multimedia services to residential, office buildings and hotels.
Central to BNS’s IPTV solution is the design of an IP-centric IPTV head end that will
enable MNK to seamlessly and cost-effectively migrate to future generation IP video
systems.
BNS’s vendor agnostic approach will provide MNK with best-of-breed equipment from
BNS’s global partners to cover all major IPTV components of the platform, including
video encoder, ingestion system, streaming server, content security, middleware and
IP Set-Top-Box.
Through its Content 360 business division, BNS will also provide a content strategy
and roadmap that will enable MKN to differentiate its service with unique content
that is specifically relevant to the Indonesian market.
The service is set to be launched in the Rasuna area in Jakarta by the end of 2008
before being rolled out nationally within three years.
