Segmentation- TelCo’s Telephone companies, much the same as Cable and to some degree Satellite are focusing on bundled services. Voice and Data exist today and the third so called leg of the "triple play" includes video. Telco's have the highest system requirements including redundancy, certifications, and overall system requirements. This segment is highly contested by many manufactures due to its perceived overall dollar value and stature.

Segmentation-Enterprise The enterprise includes large corporations and other non commercial television service providers that are using IPTV or some other form of audio visual communication to inform, educate, or entertain a captive audience. Their requirements are very similar to the Telco's. The major differences include, scale of the systems, budgets, sales leads times, competition, and performance expectations.

Enterprise-Continued The later is not to say that they will install non-functional technologies, quite the contrary; their expectations are nearly the same as Telco's but their willingness to try more value oriented solutions enables them to take what a Telco may deem as an unacceptable risk.

Enterprise-Continued An example here is that they will accept devices that are not NEBS certified, do not offer % uptimes and are distributed pieces of technology verses large scale chassis devices. Redundancy, although desirable, is not necessarily essential and the "no single point" of failure is not required. Desktop decoding is a requirement for the enterprise.

Segmentation-MDU MDU’s include large apartment complexes, condo’s, and communities where the scale of their viewer population justifies a private television network. MDU’s will typically utilize DSL as their distribution method and thus they may be challenged to deliver MPEG 2 HD. Their requirements are very similar to the Telco's. The major differences include, scale of the systems, budgets, sales leads times, competition, and performance expectations.

A large part of this segment is based on VOD capacity and less and less on basic channel and service line ups. Although general television services, news, sports, information, and movies (not on demand) are a part, they become less and less essential. Desktop decoding is a requirement for hospitality.

Entertainment is a key part of the educational television system and VOD should comprise the majority of the services. Less linear television is required due to the vastly varying schedules of the viewing audience. Desktop decoding is a requirement for education.

This includes, communication in form of electronic mail, internet access, and television services offering educational services. These educational services facilitate patient and staff education. VOD is essential and will be the major means of interacting with these educational video assets.

Medical-Continued Linear television simply is not flexible enough to serve the needs of the patient and staff based on their viewing schedules. Some linear television will be required with a channel line up similar to the hospitality segment.
