AgileTV, United Teleports, and BNS today announced a game-changing new fully managed TV service that addresses the limitations of today's existing video services and the unique needs of North American network operators who are looking to provide more value for their customers by combining traditional pay-TV and OTT services in a single intuitive interface. The partnership forged between these companies offers a new video delivery service that sets a higher standard for what is considered a managed, end-to-end platform. When combined with an attractive profit-sharing model, the service minimizes financial risk while fostering a long-term competitive advantage.

North American Tier II and III network operators face challenges in generating sufficient revenue from video services to offset substantial capital and operational costs, as the rise of vMVPDs, and OTT services continues to erode market share. The AgileTV service powered by United Teleports and BNS is not just another vMVPD. It offers the right combination of service management, innovation and shared risk so network operators can offer competitive and regionalized services without the burden of financing and maintaining complex pay-TV systems.

The joint service addresses the most salient issues for North American network operators: Fully Managed - The fully integrated, end-to-end video service offers robust content delivery infrastructure and cloud-based flexibility that is 100% managed 24/7 by video experts.

Fully Featured - The modern carrier-grade platform offers Tier II and III network operators all the features their subscribers expect. Within a single interface that offers OTT app super aggregation, universal search and pay-TV channels, operators can create brand differentiation, unique market positioning, and subscriber loyalty.

Fully Profitable - Based on the usage and performance of the service, profits generated by the TV service platform are shared benefiting both parties as the video service becomes more successful. The reduced OPEX and ability to leverage existing infrastructure means a more profitable TV solution with attractive margins.

We understand what it takes to deliver a unified viewing experience that needs to meet unique regional content and infrastructure requirements. This is an ideal partnership to translate our expertise and success with AgileTV in the complex European market for North America, said Ruben Senor-Megias, Chief Sales Officer, AgileTV.

This refreshing approach to a managed TV service is perfectly aligned with our mission for providing timely, tailored, cost-effective, and reliable solutions. The market is ripe for this type of disruption and we look forward to giving operators a better choice for delivering the full spectrum of entertainment, said Ricardo Dias, CEO of United Teleports.

Every sized operator deserves the opportunity to deliver great video experiences - with a healthy profit margin. Based on years of experience in the North American video delivery market, we are confident this service can fill the existing gap for operationally efficient and profitable video services, said Chuck Hasek, CTO, BNS.

United Teleports and BNS will be featured at the NCTC Winter Educational Conference (WEC) in Atlanta, Feb. 23-25.
