ALi Corporation, a leading provider of Set-Top Box (STB) chipsets, proudly announces a strategic collaboration with ACCESS NetRange, a pioneer in licensed application provisioning for smart TVs and Set-Top Boxes. This partnership marks a significant milestone in the STB industry by integrating ACCESS NetRange's cloud-based browser solution into ALi's RTOS STB platform, revolutionizing traditional zapper STBs into intelligent STBs with Video on Demand (VoD) and Over-The-Top (OTT) functionalities.
ALi Corporation's RTOS platform, in conjunction with ACCESS NetRange's Twine Micro Client Solution, addresses a critical market need for a comprehensive browser and app solution on zapper STB platforms. This integration empowers users to access a diverse array of online content and services directly through their STBs, delivering an immersive and enriched viewing experience. The collaboration between ALi and ACCESS NetRange is poised to unlock numerous business development opportunities for both companies. With ALi's unparalleled reach in the STB market, selling 40 million STB SoCs globally, and ACCESS NetRange's advanced technology and content offerings, operators can now enhance their service portfolios and stay competitive in an ever-evolving market landscape.
Cashew Chen, President of ALi Corporation, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, "This partnership enables us to offer our clients an expanded range of content options and upgraded features for zapper STBs. By enriching the viewing experience of end-users, we are providing our clients with a significant competitive advantage in the market." ALi's capability to provide their clients with more content and upgraded Zapper STB features is instrumental in customer success. This collaboration not only benefits from ALi's extensive coverage and advanced technology but also opens up new avenues for ACCESS NetRange to reach additional populations of STBs. For instance, in regions like LATAM, SEA, and Africa, where traditional STBs still dominate, our solution can provide a transformative experience to end-users."
Through this collaboration, ALi Corporation and ACCESS NetRange are poised to drive innovation and growth in the STB industry, catering to the evolving needs of operators and end-users alike. With the potential to penetrate untapped markets such as LATAM, SEA, and Africa, this partnership sets the stage for further advancements and success in the STB market.
