BroadLogic and Beijing Capital Assets Management to Develop Video Network for China; Companies to Exploit Video Applications of Revolutionary WideBand Technology.SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- BroadLogic Network Technologies, a supplier of groundbreaking semiconductor chipsets to the broadband industry, today announced an agreement with Beijing Capital Assets capital assets n. equipment, property, and funds owned by a business. (See: capital, capital account) Management (CAM) to jointly develop and deploy a cost-effective digital video communications network The transmission channels interconnecting all client and server stations as well as all supporting hardware and software. for use throughout China, and ultimately other countries. The network will enable Chinese network operators to distribute a robust suite of digital programming, including educational, news, sports, and entertainment channels, to televisions in small- to medium-sized communities which today have little or no access to broadcast or cable television. Known as the China Rural Digital Cable System, the network will utilize BroadLogic's advanced WideBand silicon and CAM's satellite receiving technology as well as its product engineering, manufacturing, sales and support. "In last month's government meeting, the Chinese central government decided to dramatically enhance the infrastructure for rural areas over the next six years, with emphasis on distance learning and communications infrastructure," said Liu Xiaoguang Liu Xiaoguang (born March 20, 1960) is a professional Go player. Biography He started playing Go at 13. He was promoted to the 6th dan in 1982, then the 9th dan in 1988. He is married to Hua Xueming. , Chairman of Beijing Capital Group. "The Chinese government Ever since Republic of China founded in January 1st, 1912, China has had several regional and national governments. List
China has a population of approximately 1.3 billion people, with more than 70% living in rural communities which today have little or no broadcast or cable television service. CAM ultimately seeks to provide television service to over 900 million people in these areas using BroadLogic WideBand silicon. "Expanding the reach of Chinese programming to serve all communities throughout the country represents a considerable challenge, especially when taking into account the costs associated with constructing new networks," said Yang Xiaobing, Executive Board Director of CAM, a wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary A subsidiary whose parent company owns 100% of its common stock. Notes: In other words, the parent company owns the company outright and there are no minority owners. of Capital Group. "We have evaluated all network alternatives and determined that BroadLogic's unique silicon provides the best approach to efficiently deliver a rich line-up of channels to homes in virtually every town. I am excited to see this practical solution being able to deliver a wide array of programming to both rural areas as well as major cities." The first region targeted by CAM is to be SiChuan Province, the second largest agricultural province in China with a population of 87 million people. In SiChuan, an estimated 64 million people live in over 200,000 small- to medium-size communities. In these communities, there is very limited or no broadcast or cable television service available. CAM has obtained the SiChuan Government's support to trial the China Rural Digital Cable System in early 2007. Following a successful trial, CAM plans to populate To plug in chips or components into a printed circuit board. A fully populated board is one that contains all the devices it can hold. across the entire province starting in 2008, and subsequently promote the technology to other provinces. "To date, many leaders in the cable industry have acknowledged WideBand as an essential technology for delivering ultra-fast Internet connectivity and IP-based video services," said BroadLogic President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. , Tony Francesca. "In China, BroadLogic recognized a new application for WideBand that meets the objectives of the central government. Thanks to CAM's expertise and close working relationships within China, together we are developing a system for cost-effectively delivering multi-channel TV programming to a very large population."
