They have collaborated with tech giants UTStarcom for this ambitious venture, which should put them in a market with no players in the Indian broadband scenario. UTStarcom has already installed a digital head end in Gurgaon where the trial run is on with some free-to-air (FTA) TV channels and other video content. They would also be developing the entire IPTV architecture for the company in India. This includes supplies of head end and the digital set-top boxes to the customers subscribing to the services from Bharti. Bharti already has gained a sizable broadband and telephony customers and are rapidly expanding their landline network around the country. They are also reportedly working hard on creating a network transmission capacity for IPTV and are discussing the potential deals with the broadcasters. http://sifybroadband.techwhack.com/366/bha...ocol-tv-market/ all PROMISES none are fullfilled grrrrrrrrrrrrr when willl they launch this i think it will stay in TRAIL/BETA stage as with google's services for years and years never to become a final product DD has wimax in trials somewhere infocomm had NETWAY at trials BHARTI now has IP tv @ trials TATA has tsky on the way but dont know if its actully being tried when will these trials end Edited January 23, 2006 by abhay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
