Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT) today announced that Austin, Texas-based online auction shopping network Shop LC and its U.K.-based sister company, The Jewelry Channel (TJC), leaders in internet retailing of jewelry and lifestyle products, will use Harmonic solutions to power their OTT services. Using Harmonic s VOS 360 SaaS, Shop LC and TJC will be able to distribute live OTT content to any screen with exceptional quality of experience and low latency, as well as deliver on-demand content for web shoppers.

"Low latency is critical for live OTT. Having Harmonic as a video delivery partner gives us the confidence to provide an outstanding online shopping experience to our customers, said Vineet Vashisht, chief technology officer at VGL Group, Shop LC s and TJC s parent company. "Harmonic s VOS360 SaaS sets the benchmark for delivering high-quality, low-latency live video streams, and that is why we re also looking at replacing our on-prem playout system and creating pop-up channels with Harmonic in the near future."
