IPTV Colocation Tips and
Resources
Companies setting up IPTV services have several specific needs.
The main two need requirements to make sure to get when looking to
collocate servers for an IPTV service is first, high quality
Internet bandwidth, and second, that the cost for large amounts of
Internet bandwidth is very low or a reasonable rate.
High Quality Internet Bandwidth Necessary For
Best Image and User Experience for IPTV Services
In order to assure that your IPTV viewers get the best possible
image with no interruption to the stream, you will want to make sure
that you get Internet bandwidth from a network that has connectivity
to many major Internet backbones. Select a network that
connects to hundreds of major Internet backbones directly.
Next make sure that thy are using true Intelligent routing.
This is essential for quality IPTV service.
Low Cost Per Megabit For High Volume Internet
Bandwidth Required For IPTV Services
Many networks charge what seems like a reasonable rate per Megabit
for a startup service but only a few have reasonable rates for large
quantities of Internet bandwidth. If the Internet provider
charges $100 per megabit for 10Mbps, that may sound fine, but when
an IPTV station grows and needs 100Mbps, this rate per megabit is
just to high. There are great quality networks that will
charge below $15 per megabit for 1000Mbps. Many IPTV stations
will grow to need bandwidth on a 10,000Mbps 10GigE connection and
only the best networks currently can handle this much bandwidth and
maintain a high quality service.
