QoE is sometimes referred to as "Quality of User Experience" and is the objective measure of a customer's experience with a vendor. Less than excellent quality for IPTV, VoIP and other advanced services can create customer dissatisfaction, leading to increased customer churn, higher technical support costs and revenue loss. Symmetricom will be featuring its QoE solutions that support triple play services (voice, video, data) to help eliminate service provider concern for costly service disruptions. Also featured will be Symmetricom's V-Factor(TM), the first video quality indicator to take into account both network and content impairment parameters, which creates a benchmark that helps service providers evaluate the perceptual impact of video quality artifacts introduced by video transmission over a network.
Delivering multi-platform television over IP, the IPTV World Forum is the world's leading IPTV event with over 5,000 expected to attend and 200 exhibitors. The event will feature 30 worldwide telcos and ISPs discussing IPTV service deployment issues as well as speakers from the leading content players and broadcasters. The IPTV showcase area in the exhibition will feature service demonstrations from 25 leading worldwide IPTV deployments. The IPTV World Forum is also co-hosting The Connect Home, Europe's largest specialist show covering the connected home industry as well as TV over Net, the leading event dedicated to the emerging Internet TV platform.
