Eltrona turns to Ocilion for launch of new TV+ offering

Luxembourg service provider Eltrona, whose network covers 85% of households in the country, has launched TV+, a new interactive TV service in partnership with Ocilion.

The service offers catch-up TV, an integrated video library, fast zapping and recordings among other functions. The Eltrona TV+ app provides access to content on a tablet or smartphone.

The service, which includes a 4K set-top box, is also available on all other Internet networks in Luxembourg.

“We are delighted to be able to provide our clients with the latest technology in television offerings on a national ultra-high-speed network. If technology has been at the core of our developments to provide a quality service, this is above all a new experience which caters to new TV habits, service and customer satisfaction that have been at the heart of our thinking,” said Paul Denzle, CEO of Eltrona Interdiffusion.
