Pay-TV subscribers in the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) markets are projected to reach half a
billion by 2016 with approximately 75 percent on digital platforms.

 

The percentage of cable TV subscribers worldwide
receiving digital signals is expected to grow from 44 percent in 2010 to 79
percent in 2016.

 

The same software design platform can be leveraged to

for lower costs, less complexity and faster time-to-market.

 

Pin-pin is compatible while adding interoperability with
the BCM7358 DVB_S2 HD satellite STB.

consumption with an integrated standby power management controller and AVS
(adaptive voltage scaling) technology.

 

With a DTA product family that leverages a single design
platform, Broadcom paves the way for cost-effective and rapid digital TV
transitions in multiple markets, addressing the growth in pay-TV subscribers in
emerging markets,” said Dan Marotta, EVP & GM, Broadband Communications
Group, Broadcom.
