Benefits
High Definition Video Quality
The STB-1003 supports high-definition video that displays at 720p and 1080i with MPEG-4 part 10/H.264 format. High-definition video offers exciting and dramatic viewing enjoyment thanks to better realism and details, especially on larger displays; it also comes complete with digital audio for even more exhilarating home theater experience.
Advanced Video Coding
ZyXEL’s STB-1003 offers IP video services, such as Video-on-Demand and IPTV, based on MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression technology to reach a wider audience or achieve a higher density of service, and thus increased bandwidth efficiency. This enables Telcos to expand their subscriber base and offer two or more video streams per household, where only one was previously possible - creating opportunities for substantially increased revenues and faster return on their IPTV investments.
Support for Content Security Solutions
The STB-1003 is compatible with a wide range of leading content protection and right management solutions with or without Smart Cards.
Support for Middleware Solutions
The STB-1003 is supported by leading IPTV middleware providers for integration as part of a broadband TV solution. It also supports applications developed in HTML and JavaScript for content extensions.
Easy Installation and Extendable Features
The STB-1003 is easy to install even for subscribers, and its field- upgradeable software platform is also handy for future technology enhancements without costing IPTV service providers significantly.
