German IPTV and hybrid DVB set-top-box provider ABOX42 will demonstrate its new dotIO smart home platform for pay-TV, internet and mobile operators at IBC in Amsterdam at booth 14.C17.
The fully managed end-to-end solution enables operators to generate additional revenue streams by opening up new business models.
“With the margins for internet, telephony and TV services shrinking, operators have to look for another major revenue stream. Smart home services are a great opportunity from a monetisation standpoint, yet they can be complex to set up,” said Matthias Greve, CEO and founder of ABOX42. “Being a white label solution, our new ABOX42 dotIO smart home platform eases those issues, enabling operators to quickly enter a new service space, create additional revenue streams and reduce churn.”
The solution includes the ABOX42 H38 secure gateway, a range of essential sensors, a data cloud service, mobile applications for iOS and Android devices and a real-time cockpit for service monitoring.
It is fully operated and managed 24/7 by experts of ABOX42 and offers a seamless integration with existing CRM and billing systems, according to the company. Data is collected independently of customer information to ensure compliance with increased privacy concerns.
In addition to demonstrating its dotIO platform, ABOX42 invites to another part of its IPTV/OTT industry series at IBC on Saturday, September 16, 2017 from 16.30 to 19.00 CET at the Content Everywhere Hub Theatre in hall 14.
