Cisco launches what it says is the first wireless IPTV service in the industry, featuring new wireless receivers and wireless access points (WAPs) to deliver both SD and HD video services throughout the home.
The system features 2 offerings from the Cisco Videoscape portfolio-- the ISB7005 wireless receiver and the VEN401 WAP.
One WAP per home supports up to two receivers.
The wireless receiver delivers both live TV channels and interactive services while acting as a Total Home HD DVR, allowing the wireless viewing and management of DVR recordings from a wired DVR.
Currently the Cisco solution is only available in the US (via AT&T) but one can assume European video operators (not to mention customers) will also find it quite attractive.
