Lyse Tele Uses Kreatel for IPTV

LINKÖPING, Sweden -- Kreatel Communications today announced the continued collaboration with Norwegian broadband provider Lyse Tele AS. Under the terms of the agreement, Kreatel remains the provider of IP set-top boxes for Lyse’s solution and will deliver an additional 45,000 units over the coming two years.

The agreement covers deliveries of four different IP set-top box models – Kreatel IP-STB 1510, 1550, 1710 and 1750 – as well as the Kreatel TV Software, the software platform that enables the integration of all models in the same solution. Lyse will now be able to include advanced video codecs and high definition television (HDTV) in their already comprehensive service package.

The number of subscribers to Lyse’s IPTV solution currently increases with approximately 25,000 per year. That includes the subscribers of Lyse’s many partners, also the small regional broadband providers, who deploy the full Lyse solution from headend to set-top box.
