Motorola and Avail Media launch MWAVE IPTV solution

by Jan Harris

Avail Media has announced a partnership with Motorola to deliver its MWAVE service for IPTV providers.

MWAVE (MPEG-4 Wide Area Video Entertainment) comprises equipment and services which allow IPTV service providers to launch new entertainment services over their high speed data networks.

The service can transport over 200 standard definition channels and over 20 high-definition channels, for access by operators who want to launch a suite of television services quickly.

It allows IPTV providers to launch TV service without incurring high capital costs, and eliminates the need to build a complete video headend.

According to Jon Romm, the company’s COO, Avail Media has “made a major commitment to secure transport rights to North America’s most sought-after content and to establish a world-class national video processing facility for distribution to Motorola subscribers.”
