10-Bit HEVC added to cable & IPTV STB SoC devices

Broadcom has introduced the next-generation of its widely deployed mid-range cable and IPTV STB SoC devices. The upgraded chips now integrate the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) to provide up to a 50% reduction in bandwidth for similar video quality, allowing operators to leverage huge bandwidth cost savings as they migrate to cloud based all-IP video delivery. 

Broadcom’s upgrades to its high-volume cable and IP STB silicon solutions are engineered as hardware drop-in upgrades to existing designs for fast and low-cost OEM and operator modernisations to existing high-volume production platforms.

“Broadcom has integrated its industry-leading 10-bit HEVC decoder technology into its most popular mid-range IP and cable STB solutions to enable OEMs and operators globally to quickly upgrade current customer premise equipment to the most advanced compression standard,” said John H. Gleiter, Vice President, Broadband & Connectivity Group, Broadcom. “Broadcom continues to lead the industry in efforts to proliferate HEVC across STBs platforms and enable operators to provide video more efficiently than ever to subscribers worldwide.”
