Bandwidth Management

iTVManager lets you configure each set-top box to match the maximum bandwidth demand with the actual capabilities of the network.

You can enable or disable features like HD, Pause-Live-TV, and Personal Video Recording. You can also control how many simultaneous streams can be recorded.

With this feature, you can install two full featured set-top boxes each capable of recording two HD streams and then “downgrade” one STB to one standard definition stream. The maximum bandwidth consumption would then be limited to 2 HD streams plus 1 SD stream.  As the last-mile bandwidth increases with network upgrades, the capabilities of the STBs can be upgraded remotely.
