IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is a system where a digital television service is delivered using Internet Protocol over a network infrastructure, which may include delivery by a broadband connection. A general definition of IPTV is television content that, instead of being delivered through traditional broadcast and cable formats, is received by the viewer through the technologies used for computer networks.
The development of a TV to IP gateway interface has enabled terrestrial and satellite services to be plugged directly into a LAN, allowing live broadcast TV and radio to be distributed across a building or campus network. This is a significant development and follows the trend of electronic devices such as telephones, CCTV and building management systems, card readers, and so on, connecting to and communicating via the network.
The biggest challenge for hospitality organisations is generating maximum revenue from each room, while minimising costs for delivering services.
Allied to this is improving guest satisfaction through offering a better experience to build both loyalty and differentiation.
