IPTV is multi-channel, internet protocol television which can
facilitate the delivery of multi-definition content. Instead of a
signal being transmitted via satellite, cable or terrestrial routes,
the IPTV signal is transmitted via a broadband line. This enables
the consumer to watch IPTV on a PC, or on other compatible forms
of media such as a mobile telephone or a gaming console.
Recent
statistics from IPTV

million in 2013. Combined (last-mile) CapEx
