Applications & Benefits
Expanding Revenue and Reducing Churn
- With an IPTV service, operators can enjoy a new source of revenue, and at the same time create the opportunity for new top-line revenue in areas such as advertising, applications, and new à la carte services.
- When customers bundle IPTV or CDN services with traditional telecom and broadband services, the effect has the additional benefit of reducing customer churn. Churn reduction in the range of 40 to 50% are possible by bundling entertainment services with broadband and telephony.

- Coupled with these cost-effective network solutions, Huawei can show revenue contributions from both IPTV and CDN/OTT video solutions that help justify an operator’s network expansion plans, making the total solution a business-case-driven decision with a known ROI.
