"The Cable Show attendees will be able to get up close and personal with several demonstrations that not only leverage the RDK integrated software bundle endorsed by many of the world's top cable operators, but also highlight the technological strides Alticast is making to enable a reliable, state-of-the-art TV experience."

Alticast will have the following demonstrations, among several others, available at The Cable Show:


-- The Alticast HDMI Media Express works in conjunction with a home
gateway, enabling service providers to securely deliver live and
on-demand programing to TVs in the home or on the go. This high

design opens the doors to new revenue opportunities and provides added
entertainment choices to customers.
-- Cloud-DVR puts users in control of their TV watching schedule, allowing
them to automate the scheduling of content recording and storage. Once
the program is in the Cloud, it can be watched on a variety of devices,
providing ease of playback anywhere, anytime.
