DUNDAS, Ont. — Video and broadband services provider Clearcable today announced it is expanding its hosted IPTV services business with the addition of Minerva Networks’ IPTV platform.
Clearcable already powers a number of video services for operators in Canada, including hospitality applications, web streaming, IPTV and federated video portals through its data centre and content distribution network. With the addition of Minerva Networks’ comprehensive media management IPTV solution, Clearcable will be able to expand its current video offering to include new features and expanded device options, says the company’s press release.
“As a result of our current position of actively supporting advanced video delivery options for Canadian service providers, and our relationships with the premier transport, network and content providers, Clearcable further solidifies our position as the premier, white-label, end-to-end video service provider for small and mid-sized Canadian service providers,” said Paul Osmond, Clearcable’s director of content distribution, in the news release. “We look forward to expanding our base of customers who want to offer a modern video service, on the latest generation of devices at an affordable and manageable level.”
“The fact that nearly two-thirds of Canada’s population enjoys digital video services, almost twice as much as the worldwide average, represents a great opportunity for Clearcable as they address the evolving needs of regional operators,” added Randy Osborne, senior vice-president of worldwide sales at Minerva Networks, based in San Jose, Calif. “Our team is committed to powering services that delight subscribers and we are excited to be working closely with Clearcable to further transform their video offerings and deliver unique entertainment experiences.”
With video and TV offerings playing a vital role with more people staying at home due to the Covid-19 crisis, service provider video services have once again become front and centre, says the press release.
“Now’s the time to build the services and value that will propel your TV business for the long haul,” added Clearcable’s Osmond.
