Telenor Sweden is deploying Celeno-powered Inteno video bridges to offer customers Wi-Fi access to IPTV services across multiple screens. The operator is the 75th service provider globally to choose Celeno's Wi-Fi solution for whole-home networking of multiple HD IPTV streams.
The solution offered by Inteno and Celeno are now deployed in multiple service providers across Scandinavia. The ZAP-100 video bridge, announced earlier in 2011, provides state of the art Wi-Fi performance with QoS optimized for carrier-grade video service.

It includes channel-aware scheduling and rate selection for perfect QoS and throughput/range performance and automatic channel selection for interference avoidance.
The ZAP100 is a plug-and-play device, designed to deliver HD and SD IPTV video streams from Ethernet-equipped broadband gateways or DVRs to multiple IP set-top boxes."
"With the explosive growth of IPTV worldwide, we expect our solutions to extend even further," said Gilad Rozen, CEO of Celeno.
