Broadcom's FastRTV technology accelerates digital TV channel changes to near instantaneous speeds

IRVINE, USA: Broadcom Corp. has announced its revolutionary new FastRTV Channel Change Acceleration technology that improves television channel change speeds by up to five times.

FastRTV technology is now available in a wide range of Broadcom system-on-a-chip (SoC) solutions for digital cable set-top boxes (STBs) and universal digital transport adapters (uDTAs).

Comcast is the first service provider to deploy Broadcom's FastRTV technology in its uDTA deployments to transition from analog to standard definition (SD) digital TV broadcasts.


Dan Marotta, executive VP & GM, Broadcom's Broadband Communications Group, said: "Our new FastRTV technology greatly enhances the viewer's TV experience, creating quick channel changes and near instant response time that in turn ends the frustration caused by slow channel surfing. Service providers will appreciate an easy deployment that creates a compelling and attractive feature for increasing customer loyalty and satisfaction."
