The Espial Media Service Platform is a finalist in the Best Cable or Satellite IP Solution category, based on being the supplier and MSI for the Tele Columbus advanceTV service in Germany.


In addition, the Espial Media Service Platform and Espial G4 STB Client have been recognised in the Best Customer Premise Technology category for their work on the UMA service with NOS, Portugal's leading cable operator.

At the heart of the advanceTV solution for Tele Columbus is the Espial Media Service Platform, a cloud-based back-office platform that unifies the video experience. Paired with the Espial G4 STB Client, based on RDK, the Media Service Platform powers advanceTV's intuitive content navigation and discovery via a fast, immersive interface; recommendations; and unified search across all content and devices. NOS turned to the Espial G4 STB Client to ensure an exceptional consumer experience for its next-generation set-top box (STB).

"We're excited to be shortlisted in two categories of the CSI Awards for our work with NOS and Tele Columbus," said Kirk Edwardson, head of marketing at Espial. "Not only does this achievement recognise the success of our elite services team in delivering breakthrough technologies for leading European operators, it also acknowledges the power of our cloud and client solutions, RDK leadership and exceptional user experience."
