STOCKHOLM -- Tele2 Netherlands, one of the leading communication companies in the Netherlands, has selected Amino Communications, the world leading independent IPTV specialist, as the supplier of MPEG-4 set-top boxes (STBs) for the provision of IPTV services. Under the terms of the agreement, Amino is expected to supply Tele2 with STBs – including its latest A132 and A532 MPEG-4 dual SD/HD compatible and Personal Video Recorder (PVR) models - over an 18-month period.

Tele2’s Director Consumer Market Günther Vogelpoel said: “We needed a STB that offered the most advanced features, responsive interface and a clear road map that was aligned with our own future strategy on IPTV. Amino’s products combined advanced functionality, a total cost of ownership and a supporting ecosystem, which made them the compelling choice.”
