Beijing, CCBN, March 24th, 2010: Conax, one of the top three providers of content protection for digital TV content distribution world-wide, since launching sales and technical support operations in Beijing in 2006, has established itself as one of the leading international players in the rapidly expanding Chinese cable market.

Recent important wins include prominent cable operators in Anshan, and additional wins in Changzhi and Heze together with strategic partner Star. Star, a leading player within digital TV in China, is driving the development of the Heze DTV platform, deploying the key technical resources and market expertise for the customer operations that Star is known for.

The Conax global footprint includes over 350 customer operations in 80 countries. The international content security specialist has developed an increasingly impressive reputation among Chinese operators and key partners within the China TV market for providing highly reputable content protection, an excellent security record, and stable, reliable technology for facing the growing challenges of the country’s vast market.

“Platforms deploying Conax security technology in China have been introduced to a much higher level of security than previously available in the market,” says Theo Van Aalst, CEO, Conax China.

With rapidly growing interest from the Chinese consumers for pay-TV content and added-value services, operators not protecting their content should be concerned. Content protection is a small platform investment compared to the large returns provided by secured, valuable pay-TV content. Conax focuses on providing platforms with maximum security for the Chinese operators in order to prepare for future challenges.”

Conax is renowned for its open partnering policy for both security evaluated consumer devices, allowing operators to choose from a wide selection of devices and also complimentary solutions that best fit their needs. The Conax strategy has been highly successful in the Chinese market.

“Conax is pleased with the results created through Conax partners in the Chinese market over the last years. Customers and partners show strong interest in Conax valuable global security experience combined with the experience of local partners providing other key platform elements”, says Theo van Aalst, CEO, Conax China.
