Taiwan Broadband Communication Deploys Second Cable TV Video Delivery System From Harmonic
"We've experienced significant growth over the last few years, and adding another headend was necessary to ensure the best viewing experience for our subscribers. While selecting a technology provider, the key requirements for us were video quality, flexibility and load balancing between the main and second headend," said
At the heart of the headend is Harmonic's video encoding platform, which increases SD/HD MPEG-4 AVC encoding efficiency and enables TBC to deliver superior video quality to subscribers by utilizing advanced motion estimation, refined multi-pass encoding and preprocessing capabilities. The encoders are integrated with Harmonic's multiplexing systems and Spectrum XE playout system, which provides TBC with a cost-effective solution for regionalizing downstream programs via support for local ad insertion and branding.
"Harmonic is the expert in delivering crystal-clear video quality and helping operators better monetize their offerings via regional and local program insertion functionalities," said
