SmarDTV, a Kudelski Group company, said that its third generation System-In-Package (SIP) technology was selected by Altech UEC of Durban, South Africa, to be included in a brand new HD set-top box for OpenView HD, South Africa’s first free-to-air digital satellite TV platform. The SIP technology is claimed to facilitate local manufacturing since all key elements such as security assets and user interface requirements are all pre-integrated within the SIP silicon.
SmarDTV said that it has deployed more than five million of its SIP technology products in Latin America, Asia and Africa.
