Case Study: SmartLabs achieves IPTV set-top box launch with Promwad

SmartLabs launches IPTV set-top boxes in 10 months with Promwad

The customer, SmartLabs LLC, was a leading provider of software solutions for interactive TV that lacked hardware design experience. Their challenge was to create their own set-top box to achieve vertical diversification and avoid dependence on equipment manufacturers. They partnered with the vendor, Promwad, for a turnkey hardware and software solution.

Promwad developed a range of IPTV set-top boxes, handling hardware design, Linux-based software, and enclosure design. The solution enabled support for various video standards and a wide array of interfaces. As a result, SmartLabs won a $50 million contract with a large telecom operator, providing devices for two million subscribers and establishing themselves as an international leader in the IPTV market.
