An end-to-end IPTV solution we design, deploy and support — head-end to set-top box. Our SKD product line lets a single integrator own the entire signal path, from satellite dish to guest-room screen, with full PMS integration.
Four stages, four HICL-branded products, one accountable supplier — from the satellite dish on the roof to the screen in every room.
Satellite, cable and streaming inputs are received and pre-processed at the property head-end.
