A headend platform of superior reliability with a hardware failure rate of less than
0.3% creates a cornerstone for future video services in all-IP networks and guarantees

Consumer demand for digital Cable TV and IPTV is forecasted to increase exponentially

line-up. The fully modular, high-density platform future proofs operators' investments in
new capabilities and is the backbone of successful service delivery. Receiving content

The Luminato has proven to be one of the most reliable headend platforms on the
market. It is trusted by various cable TV and IPTV operators and Telcos, with varying
feature demands. There are thousands of appliances operational around the world, serving
subscribers with tens of thousands of channels around the clock. Yet, less than 0.3% of

an integral part of their Digital TV solution, installed in more than 200 Quadriga hotels
across 19 countries.

doesn't require any special arrangements for cooling. It is simply very easy to install
and extremely reliable in operation", says Ian Stephens, Sourcing and Purchasing Manager,
