The times are changing. The new world of connecting the TV to the Internet brings many opportunities and challen-ges to you as an operator or developer. ABOX42 is taking a new approach with the ABOX42 Smart Platform to solve the most important key challenges:
Mass Production state-of-the-art STBs (ABOX42 SMART STB)
Our product line offers a range of set top box products from cost effective to high performance STBs for even the
most demanding IPTV, OTT and CloudTV services.
Due to ABOX42‘s new production and software processes, there is no longer a need to produce hardware only for
one customer in a custom manufacturing run. This reduces the leadtime for production, the required volumes for
orders and gives you as operator much more flexibility to react on changing demands based on your sales needs.
Sophisticated SDK & Software Platform (ABOX42 SMART SDK / SMART RCU & MOBILE TOOLKIT)
The software platform is treated as one of our core products. It has already all new requirements to run the next
generation of applications. Based on the requirements of over 100 OTT / IPTV services already running, there is
hardly any requirement missing which is critical for your project. The ABOX42 Smart SDK is also ready for integrati-
on of middleware solutions and offers enablers for a variety of known middleware providers. A custom integration
project can be agreed depending on project requirements.
Our system runs on Linux, HTML and the latest Internet standards. There is no propriety technology built in. Compa-
red to Android, this environment is very controlled and can support your deployment for many years. With our soluti-
on we have solved all the major challenges an Android deployment will run into, when it is deployed and operated in
the field. Please talk to us for more information on this strategic topic.
Next to this the ABOX42 Smart RCU & mobile Toolkit provides the essential application tools to build smartphone &
tablet applications to interact with the ABOX42 Smart STBs.
Unique SaaS Services for Operation of the STB Deployment (ABOX42 SMART SAAS SERVICES)
We not only deliver you hardware and software, but also a head end system via an easy to use SaaS services to
operate your boxes in the field. The SaaS services e.g. manages the software life cycle (e.g. deployment of new
firmware), monitors the deployed boxes and can collect statistical information of the usage of your service through
the costumer, which can not be collected in your services head end. You can manage the SaaS services yourself or
you can use our management services, in which we can manage your hardware deployment. The SaaS services can
be integrated into your SMS (subscriber management system) and your CRM (customer relationship management)
systems.
Enhance your Service with our end user Extensions (ABOX42 SMART SOLUTIONS)
Besides delivering the platform to run your services, you can also take advantage of our Add-On packages to en-
hance your service offered to the end costumers. Features like a dynamic portal with App store, compatibility to
YouTube Leanback and RadioTime (6000 radio channels) or our Android Viewer, can give your potential customers
additional reasons to subscribe to your service. With our video podcast and on demand channel management system,
you can give your users access to up to 5.000 additional content channels including latest HbbTV applications from
Broadcasters and Smart TV applications from Smart TV Alliance.
Powerful development Tools and next generation of Developer Support
Our platform is based on the latest Internet standards and technologies. Your application and user interface can easi-
ly be written by web developers. No special know how is required. This reduces your development time and costs by
a factor of ten and gives you a much greater flexibility in terms of GUI and functionality compared to the traditional
STB world.
