Benefits
Advanced video coding
ZyXEL STB-2105 offers IP video services, such as Video-on-Demand and IPTV, based on MPEG-4
AVC/H.264 compression technology, to reach a wider audience or achieve a higher density of service,
and thus increased network utilization. This enables Telco/Service Providers to expand their
subscriber base and offer two or more video streams per household, where only one was previously
possible — creating opportunities for substantially increased revenues and faster return on their
IPTV investments.
High-Definition video quality
ZyXEL STB-2105 supports High-Definition displays at 720p and 1080p with MPEG-4 part 10/H.264
format. High-Definition video offers exciting and dramatic viewing enjoyment with greater realism
and more detail, especially on large displays. It comes complete with digital audio outputs for an
even more exciting home theater experience.
Support for content security solutions
STB-2105 is compatible with a wide range of leading content protection and rights management
solutions without Smart Cards. Its Conditional Access capabilities will provide good protection in
regards to content provider concerns.
Support for middleware solutions
ZyXEL STB-2105 is supported by leading IPTV Middleware providers for integration as part of a
broadband TV solution. It also supports applications developed in HTML, Javascript, and even the
state-of-the-art SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) for content extensions.
Easy installation and extendable features
ZyXEL STB-2105 is easy to install even for subscribers, and its field-upgradeable software platform is
also handy for future technology enhancements without costing IPTV service providers significantly.
DLNA for easy multimedia sharing
With an embedded hard disk, users can record their favorite video clips and pause live TV.
In addition, family members can easily share multimedia content without going through a
complicated setup process.
