mPhase Technologies Demonstrates Delivery of IPTV Over Switched Ethernet Connection at NORWECOM 2006; Cost-Effective Interactive TV Solution Serves to Highlight Quality of Service Control.ST. PETERSBURG, Russia -- mPhase Technologies, a pioneer developer of technology for delivering television over telephone networks, this week is demonstrating how telecommunications providers can now cost-effectively market TV programs as part of a switched Ethernet An Ethernet network that is controlled by a switch instead of a shared hub. The switch cross connects all clients, servers and network devices, giving each sending-receiving pair the full rated transmission speed. multi-service offer encompassing VoIP, high speed Internet data and streaming video A one-way video transmission over a data network. It is widely used on the Web as well as company networks to play video clips and video broadcasts. Computers in home networks stream video to digital media hubs connected to a home theater. . The integration of the mPhase TV+ System over a Worldwide Packet Network Ethernet network demonstrated the flexibility of the mPhase TV+ System. The solution is being showcased at this week's NORWECOM 2006 at the LENEXPO Fairgrounds n. pl. 1. same as fairground. here. "mPhase is demonstrating the latest generation mPhase TV+ System across a variety of broadband access See broadband and wireless broadband. topologies including DSL DSL in full Digital Subscriber Line Broadband digital communications connection that operates over standard copper telephone wires. It requires a DSL modem, which splits transmissions into two frequency bands: the lower frequencies for voice (ordinary , fiber and Ethernet," said Ron Durando, mPhase's chief executive. "Our platform is a means to enable telephone companies to cost-effectively offer premium interactive television services to their broadband customers." "We recognise that operators have a variety of choices in how they design their 'triple play' infrastructure," said Durando. "We are showing that the mPhase TV+ System is a carrier grade IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) Also called "TV over IP," IPTV delivers scheduled TV programs and video-on-demand (VOD) via the IP protocol and digital streaming techniques used to watch video on the Internet. enabler that operators can use in any number of multi-service scenarios, whether their preference is switched Ethernet or xDSL, running either on copper or fiber cable."

The term OSS most frequently describes "network systems" dealing with the telecom network itself, supporting processes such , including element management of IP traffic --Compatibility with industry standard services creation environments --high degree of reliability to protect against network failover --Unprecedented scalability, capable of growing to hundreds of thousands of users The cluster architecture enables technical personnel to manage subscribers, monitor alarm messages and billing information and seek context-sensitive help across all network elements. Each central exchange-based cluster is designed to control and integrate video-on-demand and program information elements and the video head end encoding systems. Network planners can distribute the clusters to optimise the load balancing of the network resources for capabilities like content distribution. Through this segmentation, technicians can better manage subscriber demand and establish QoS criteria against failover. About mPhase Technologies, Inc. mPhase Technologies Inc.
