September 8, 2021
NetRange, a global provider of white-labelled, turnkey Smart TV and OTT ecosystems, has renewed its partnership with KTC to provide KTC customers with a customisable Smart TV app portal offering for individual markets through the NetRange Smart TV App Store.
Built on NetRange’s HTML5 portal, KTC’s app store now offers a customised service without the need for additional support from chipset providers or ODM firmware. The NetRange HTML5 cloud-based OTT Smart TV Portal supports automatic software upgrades from the NetRange server-side, meaning no OTA upgrade is required from the mainboard. NetRange’s innovative technology enables KTC and its customers to create significant efficiencies without impacting the quality of service.

We share a common belief that the customer should always come first and always be armed with the necessary tools to help differentiate themselves in their local and international markets. Extending our partnership with NetRange was an easy decision as its technology and expertise enable us to support our clients and their needs with confidence.
