• Choice of IP address scheme: Subscribers can choose either a dynamic, local IP
address or single, or multiple public IP addresses, obtaining either residential or
commercial type of services. In either case both upstream and downstream
throughput are approximately the same (vs. ADSL which is imbalanced).
• Ability to easily give access to multiple devices: A subscriber may connect multiple
devices to internet through independent access links. For example, individual
accounts may be set up for different IPTV services, or different PC devices, within
the same apartment. Each may be configured as "unlimited" or have separate
performance limitations.
Electro-Com has demonstrated prototype IPTV services delivered on its network. It has
provisioned a minimum performance level to each of its subscribers so that it may provide
such services as they are brought on line. The development organization has developed,
and is in process of providing field trials to Electro-Com subscribers on its network,
consisting of: Video-on-Demand, Shift TV Broadcasting, Web-TV, Surveillance, Real-Time
Broadcasting.
Furthermore, the company is building first large-scale PLC broadband network in Russia.
T-Com
[E17] TcCom is Croatia’s leading telecommunications provider of both fixed telephony and
internet services. Its broad spectrum of telecommunication services (voice telephony, data
transmission, dial-up or wireless access to internet and local area networks) are enhanced
with mobile phone services offered by T-Mobile, T-Croatian Telecom’s subsidiary.
Besides generating the largest share in Croatia’s internet traffic and introducing the state-of-
the-art communication methods parallel to their appearance on international markets
(wireless access via WiMAX), T-Com is also the leader in developing new internet content,
so it was even the first among the DT Group to offer the highly demanding MAXtv (internet
television).
T-Com offers 3 packages to its customers:
