Deutsche GigaNetz launches IPTV service

Hamburg-based telco Deutsche GigaNetz has announced the launch of a new TV service.

Utilising the ocilion cloud solution, Deutsche GigaNetz’s MyTV IPTV offer will be available across 4K Set Top Box and via the app for smartphone, tablet, Apple TV or Amazon Fire TV.

The IPTV service includes access to “numerous HD channels from a wide variety of genres,” the operator said. It also features VOD features, including time-shifted functions such as replay, restart and recording. 

Sebastian Seggert, Head of Product Management at Deutsche GigaNetz, said: “Thanks to the cloud solution from ocilion, we were able to put together an attractive complete package for our customers within a short period of time. MyTV with all its innovative functions leaves nothing to be desired by customers and will always be up to date in the future. This new television experience also serves as an important argument for the connection in our expansion areas.”

Hans Kühberger, managing director of ocilion, said: “Deutsche GigaNetz sees itself as a fiber optic ambassador in Germany and is expanding its network in giant steps to provide high-speed internet. What could work better as a draft horse than a modern IPTV product? Fiberglass, high-speed Internet and IPTV – that stands for future security, brings great added value for users and optimal marketing opportunities for Deutsche GigaNetz. Our IPTV cloud solution is used, a white label service that is operated and maintained by ocilion and enables rapid and reliable implementation.”
