OTE in Greece to Deploy Ericsson IPTV Systems

Greek incumbent telco OTE has selected Ericsson to supply and integrate an IPTV system. Ericsson will deploy headend systems from its Tandberg Television subsidiary, a middleware application, video on demand system and a customised consumer portal. The Ericsson IPTV solution will enable OTE to offer new services to its residential broadband customers, including broadcast TV channels, video on demand, an electronic program guide, and PVR capabilities.

OTE is joining On Telecoms offering IPTV services in Greece. This shows the extent that IPTV has proliferated across Europe.
