NDS and WiNetworks Cooperate to Deliver Secure Integrated WiMAX Triple Play Solution for DBS Operators

NDS and WiNetworks Cooperate to Deliver Secure Integrated WiMAX Triple Play Solution for DBS Operators

Integrated Solution Allows Low-Cost, Rapid Migration Path To Triple Play Services

NEW YORK and IBC, Amsterdam, Stand 3.324, September 7/PRNewswire/ -- NDS, the leading provider of technology solutions for digital
pay-TV, and WiNetworks will demonstrate an integrated triple play solution
for DBS operators that relies on the leading VideoGuard(R) CA system to
secure both DVB and IP video streams delivered simultaneously from Satellite
and WiMAX infrastructure. The WiNetworks patented Hybrid WiMAX DVB (HWDV(TM))
technology solution enables satellite digital broadcasters (DBS) to offer
Triple Play services such as telephony, broadband Internet, video on demand,
always-on interactive TV services and future mobile support, over their
existing network infrastructures.

The NDS and WiNetworks integrated solution enables the upgrade of
existing infrastructure to a combined broadcast and broadband IP network
while retaining all the features of secure distribution, billing and
purchasing rights as part of a one enhanced VideoGuard(R) Conditional Access
System.

The integrated solution enables DBS Operators an instant,
low-cost migration path to Triple Play services that can be immediately
presented to customers. By offering a complete bundle of Triple Play
services, DBS operators can protect and increase subscriber base, decrease
customer churn, and increase ARPU and total revenues.

"The integrated vision of broadcast and IP has a strong value
proposition for satellite operators" commented Mr. Gadi Tirosh, NDS' VP of
Product Marketing, "WiMAX technology in many ways complements the satellite
broadcast and poses potential for both underserved areas and growth into
mobile services with the introduction of the 802.16/e WiMAX standard. The NDS
and WiNetworks solution also solves many of the challenges related to WiMAX
VOD, building on the intrinsic physical infrastructure of the satellite
operator".

"We are proud to cooperate with NDS to enable the WiMAX Triple
Play solution," states Mr. Effi Atad, CEO and President of WiNetworks, "By
integrating our technologies, we are able to offer DBS Operators a ready
upgrade path to add new revenue sources and maximize the full potential of
their existing network."

Both WiNetworks and NDS will demonstrate the integrated, WiMAX
Triple Play solution at IBC2005, September 9-13, in Amsterdam, at booths
3.324 and 1.171 respectively.
