Conditional Access Module specialist SMIT has unveiled the SMIT iCast Dongle, the new generation of SMiT secure device, allows TV subscribers to watch high quality Cable/DTT live programming on an Android TV or Box through customised pre-installed iCast application, which requires nearly no extra work for manufacturers to integrate within.

iCast Dongle supports mainstream pay-TV CAS and TDES/AES algorithm for content protection over USB. Through the Internet, iCast application can access OTT content servers to achieve DVB programmes-related OTT video.

SMIT says that accordingly for DVB operators, overall costs are cut and subscribers boost is optimised; for manufacturers, extension to new features of Android TVs or Boxes is simplified, leading to increased revenue.
