STMicroelectronics ( www.st.com , Country Manager for Korea Sung-keun Kang), a leading supplier of set-top box (STB) ICs, and Dish TV, India's largest Direct-To-Home (DTH) operator, announced that they have adopted ST's highly integrated System-on-Chip (SoC) set-top box decoder ICs for Dish TV's latest digital set-top boxes.

Dish TV has been able to provide innovative services to a wide range of customers through the supply of SD (standard) and HD (high definition) set-top boxes. Set-top boxes designed based on ST's decoders are an economical solution for both SD and HD, while providing the performance and high reliability necessary to support enhanced value-added features. Dish TV recently launched Dish Tru HD, an HD service product available on set-top boxes equipped with ST products, offering rich video and audio performance for the best user experience. Handan Information & Communication ( www.woojeon-handan.com ) and Arion Technology ( www.arion.co.kr ), Korean companies specializing in digital multimedia terminals, have designed and are supplying SD set-top boxes based on ST's STi5189 and HD set-top boxes based on STi7111, respectively, to Dish TV.

Jawahar Goel, Executive Director at Dish TV, stated, “As part of our ‘Life Comes Home’ brand positioning, Dish TV is committed to optimizing the customer experience by supplying products with the best technology and providing high-quality service and support. Thanks to STMicroelectronics’ flexible, high-performance System-on-Chip ICs, Dish TV’s new digital set-top box served as the ideal platform for delivering innovative value-added services. By partnering with strategic partners possessing world-class experience and expertise to share our vision and execute our plans, Dish TV has been able to enhance customer satisfaction and maintain technological leadership in the Indian market.”

New digital set-top boxes equipped with ST’s high-density SDTV and HDTV SoCs are currently being rolled out to Dish TV subscribers across India. Through this, Dish TV is realizing its goal of further expanding its dominance across India by significantly increasing its subscriber base of 7.5 million and strengthening its leadership.
