NTTC and Conklin-Intracom Team Up To Simplify IPTV

ATLANTA--(Business Wire)--
Entering the IPTV arena just got easier for US Telcos. Conklin-Intracom and the
National Telco Television Consortium (NTTC) have teamed up to simplify the IPTV
content affiliate rights approval and implementation process.

"NTTC and Conklin-Intracom are part of an active IPTV ecosystem, both bringing
unique solution sets to the table," states Ian Meletios, CEO, Conklin-Intracom,
"when combined, they represent a simplified path for IPTV content acquisition
and distribution."

NTTC believes its relationship with Conklin-Intracom will accelerate a
successful entry for Telcos and other operators looking to deploy IPTV
solutions. "One of the biggest hurdles to a profitable Telco TV business model
is the cost and complexity of securing content. Our role in acquiring IP content
licensing helps overcome that paramount task for new operators," says William
Shepherd CEO, NTTC.

For Telcos entering the video arena for the first time with IPTV, working with
an integrated solution set such as that provided by Conklin-Intracom and NTTC
can help to hasten the learning curve and speed time to market of new services.
Those already delivering video via HFC systems or video over ATM, looking to
make a change to IPTV for its next-generation service capabilities and
infrastructure investment capitalization qualities will be able to unburden
themselves of some of the challenges of migration and implementation by engaging
experienced partners such as Conklin-Intracom and NTTC.
