Matav’s cable transmission network is capable of supporting both broadcast transmission and two-way data transmission, for telecommunications and computer networking. The return channel allows live broadcasting from the area, network status monitoring and interactive services such as internet access, home shopping etc. As part of the company’s preparation towards becoming a Multi-Service-Operator for interactive TV, telephony and Data Over Cable services, the company has defined two network upgrade projects, Segmentation and Bandwidth expantion. Oder vielleicht doch alle drei zusammen? Die technischen Vorbereitungen scheinen jedenfalls alle zu treffen. |
