Entone extends home cloud solution with EnterLink

Entone, a provider of Hybrid TV and Connected Home solutions, is taking a leadership role in eliminating the need for new wires and set-top boxes in consumers’ homes with the introduction of its EnterLink video networking solution.

“Wireless capabilities in hybrid set-top boxes provides a great benefit to consumers and solves a big problem for operators,” stated Brett Sappington, director of research at Parks Associates. “The wireless connection makes it much more likely that consumers will connect their hybrid box to the Internet to access cloud-based services and features from the operator. The Boxless approach goes even further, providing consumers with even more content viewing options and reducing costs for operators. Given these features and MoCA support, Entone’s EnterLink provides great flexibility for subscribers to access operator services within the connected home.”
