Next-Generation Digital Set-Tops: Hub of the Connected Home?
Parks Associates, Pages: 223
As entertainment grows as a key driver for home networking, the set-top box assumes a critical role as content aggregator and distributor.
This report examines the technology and market trends that are dictating the evolution of the digital STB.
It includes an overview of home networking trends, PVR capabilities, a view at current commercial or pilot rollouts, and forecasts through 2006.
Rationale for Report
As more and more IP-based devices find their way into U.S. homes, the search is intensified to find a single device that can both interface with the wide-area network and manage the distribution of information and content to devices connected to the local or home-area network.
While many different platforms are capable of delivering this level of functionality (for instance, hubs, routers, bridges, even set-top boxes), there is no consensus as to which of these devices will become dominant. However, given the pervasive availability and consumer acceptance of the set-top box platform, many observers believe that the set-top will emerge as the device of choice for delivering networked IP-based services to and through the home.
