15/06/2017

Overland Park, KS - January 14, 2016 - Cartesian (NASDAQ: CRTN), a specialist provider of consulting services and managed solutions to the global communications, technology and digital media sector, has published its 2015 Winter Edition Coordinates' Newsletter, offering its year-end industry review and predictions for 2016. Coordinates is a quarterly newsletter that provides industry insights, company news, expert interviews, and client-focused solutions and case studies.

2015 Year-End Industry Review

In this issue, Cartesian shares its expert insights on the highly-concentrated European telecommunications market, including the expanded offerings of quad-play services by major global telephone companies to increase customer satisfaction and remain technologically competitive. The company also analyzes ways in which the world of digital video is changing, with service providers now looking to offer a more accessible and portable platform for watching video, especially as over-the-top (OTT) platforms like Hulu, Amazon and Netflix challenge traditional viewer preferences and video consumption habits.

These and other special insights and commentary-including discussions on software-defined networking, content security and video analytics-can be found here.

2016 Industry Predictions

Cartesian predicts 10 major developments and trends in the communications, media and technology industry for 2016, a sample of which is listed below:

Pay-TV providers follow Comcast's lead with their Stream' product and offer slim content packages over the top.

As OTT and TVE services mature, Pay-TV providers begin to crack down on password sharing.

Traditional broadcasters continue to resist the urge to embrace third-party OTT TV platforms.

Despite pressure from Netflix and the EC (through AVMSD reform), who both love the idea of a borderless content rights ecosystems in the EU, no progress is made on this front.

Software-defined networking (SDN) will continue to gain traction with more enterprise services being developed around the technology.
