What is DTH ?

Full HD channel in India, so the hopes of seeing one in 4K look like a

far-fetched thought, not to forget the impact of additional costs for such video streams.

Through the years



While FHD streams are nowhere close to being employed, streaming services like Netflix,

Youtube and Prime video have been engaging on adding more and more

4K resolution content to their online library, rendering DTH services useless as the days pass by.

Not to mention the sheer amount of money that would need to be spent on additional

transponders which will then only be able to telecast a single

4K stream which isn’t feasible in the long run of things for dish services.

Enter. Reliance Jio and cheaper internet access.



When half of the country still relied on 2G for affordable data,

Jio instantly turned around the rather stale market.

Where users will get 1GB data per month for Rs 500,

Jio now offers 2GB per day for around the same price, maybe even lesser.

Other operators realised what was to happen and followed it up with cheaper data packs of their own and so did BSNL.

The state-run company even worked on getting a faster connection for their

broadband users and expensive data packs now seem like a distant nightmare.

Having already disrupted the telecom market,

Reliance Jio will also be releasing a combination of broadband and internet TV services across the country.

This could be the change DTH business needs as the Jio service will not only generate TV content but will let users take advantage of streaming services when they please.

Jio will be streaming its IPTV network through its Jio TV app which will connect to the internet and let you stream Live TV content from a week ago.

Video has become an indispensable part of our lives. Whether it is through mobile devices or televisions, people are engaging more with video content than ever before.

et, despite its importance to business and consumer growth, not many really understand how distribution methods for video content work.

What really is the difference between direct to home (DTH) and digital terrestrial television (DTT) and why should you care?

These are the two most common distribution methods used in Africa, a continent that is receiving significant interest as an investment destination from around the world.

Considering that more than 1.2 billion people across 54 countries live here, there is no denying the potential for growth across industry sectors.

This is especially true in communications infrastructure where it is not always possible to roll out physical cables especially to remote and rural areas.
