Etisalat demonstrates DVB-H technology at Cabsat 2008

Etisalat is participating at Cabsat 2008 and will be displaying the DVB-H technology (Digital Video Broadcasting- Handheld), which brings television to mobiles in a much more advanced manner.

Cabsat is the 14th Middle East cable, satellite, broadcast, and communications exhibition being currently held at the Dubai World Trade Centre from 4th to 6th of March.

Users with DVB-H terminals (handsets) will be able to access advanced features of the broadcast content on their handheld units, and enjoy the full benefits of interactive TV.

This new and advanced technology enables the broadcast of TV channels anywhere through a special TV broadcast instead of depending on internet connection. 'Etisalat's mission is to extend people's reach.

With this service, we are increasing the consumer's access to information and entertainment and highlighting our commitment to delivering relevant and convenient services for our customers through innovation and investment in the latest technologies,' said Essa Al Haddad, Chief Marketing Officer at Etisalat.
