Ono chooses Nagravision for new network
Rose Major
Nagravision has extended its relationship with Spanish cable operator Ono, agreeing a deal to provide conditional access for Spain’s first hybrid broadband/broadcast TV network.
Ono currently uses information management and content management systems from Nagravision but not conditional access. That has been provided by Motorola, whose MediaCipher CA system is part of an end-to-end cable solution for Ono. But Ono will switch to Nagravision for its fibre-optic network.
Services on the new network are expected to feature existing value-added services such as video-on-demand and pay-per-view as well as new and advanced PVR functionality. The offer will combine Ono’s pay-TV service with access to internet-based content.
“Providing state-of-the-art services to our customers has always been our top priority. This is why we have partnered with leaders in the Digital TV space such as Nagravision to implement and launch our next generation services,” said Paul Healy, ONO's Television Director. “We have a strong relationship with the Nagravision team and their multi-platform solutions will enable us to continue to deliver on the high quality pledge we have made to our customers.”
“We are very excited to partner with ONO on their next generation television offering which further demonstrates the modularity, flexibility and robust capabilities of our solutions and features,” said Pierre Roy, COO of Nagravision. “ONO is leading the way in the deployment of advanced television services in Spain. We are committed to helping them grow their business and secure their ever-expanding offering through solutions that can be deployed seamlessly over different types of networks.”
The launch of ONO’s next generation television platform is expected to occur in 2011 and will initially serve ONO’s fiber optic network customers. ONO’s television services currently reach nearly one million viewers in Spain.
