Motorola is to acquire privately-held TV on demand technology developer Broadbus Technologies of Boxborough, Massachusetts.
According to Motorola, Broadbus' key advantage is its solid-state server architecture based on the intelligent configuration and management of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM), which "uses less space and power than traditional hard-disk based technology, while providing performance, reliability and scalability improvements for video ingest, streaming, and storage."
Dan Moloney, president, Motorola Connected Home Solutions, said: "The addition of Broadbus Technologies will bring Motorola's video delivery platform one step closer to enabling [our] vision of seamless mobility by providing us with field-proven content management and delivery solutions. Service providers will be able to take advantage of a complete end-to-end seamless video experience enabled by Motorola technology to extend their customer relationships."
Broadbus Technologies was founded in 1999 and currently has more than 60 video-on-demand deployments with service providers worldwide including Comcast, Charter Communications, and Time Warner Cable. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
