Exset and Digital Telemedia (DTM) have announced they have signed an agreement to become a Digital Monetisation System (DMS) technology partner
DTM, a Shenzhen Jiuzhou subsidiary, plans to create set-top-boxes for digital cable for markets in Africa and South Asia, as well as for use with some key DTH platforms using Exset CAS.
Gary Ellis, CTO of Exset, said, “TM’s management vision, global presence and ability to address customers need in the context of Indian and African digitisation was a defining factor in this cooperation.”
The boxes can also be used as Exset’s DMS technology for other emerging markets and DMS has permitted digital television platforms to be created.
People can benefit from new information and entertainment services, while governments can achieve digital switchover bringing social transformation.
Huang Wie, director International Sales, DTM, said, “Exset’s DMS philosophy – that digitisation can be monetised across emerging markets, allowing digital switchover and empowering populations via TV screen-based information dissemination - is very exciting to us.
“The DTM set-top boxes that are designed and implemented for DMS will be a game-changer globally.”
