Netgem will provide P&T with its software and intelligent set top boxes. The enhanced service will be rolled out in October 2011.

The use of Netgem’s nCloud architecture, based on its embedded software and intelligent set-top boxes, gives P&T the flexibility to integrate value added content, including VOD, the popular catch-up TV service from RTL Luxembourg and other internet applications, regardless of whether this comes from P&Ts managed IPTV network or unmanaged Over-The-Top services.
