Despite its small size, the media box gives customers complete control over their entertainment experience by providing access to the full spectrum of content including live TV, replay TV, on demand content and access to a range of in-built OTT apps, all in crystal-clear image quality up to 4K, combined with Dolby sound. Additionally, the 4K Mini TV Box also allows users to stream self-generated content from their phones direct to their TV and is operated by a Bluetooth-connected voice-enabled remote control.
Built with a seamless user set-up experience in mind, the 4K Mini TV Box is powered by Liberty Global’s next generation TV platform, Horizon 4. It is the company’s first all-IP device, meaning that all it needs to run is a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection from a cable, fibre or mobile source. It can also run on the power from a TV’s USB input, which means it doesn’t even require access to a power socket.
COMBINING INNOVATION WITH A FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY
Combining innovation with sustainability, the set top box is made from 35% recycled plastic and uses no single-use plastic in its casing. Additionally, the 4K Mini TV Box reduces energy consumption by 77% compared to previous set top boxes and has a maximum power usage of under 5W, even when watching 4K content.
The launch of the eco-friendly box reinforces Liberty Global’s position as a TMT industry leader in sustainability. The company has been featured in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index every year for the past 8 years and in 2019 was placed in the top 3 most sustainable companies worldwide.
The 4K Mini TV box will be available from today to existing and new UPC Poland customers and will make the perfect TV companion to customers taking UPC Poland’s new fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) product, which launched earlier this month. As a result, including agreements with our fibre partners, our current reach of 3.5 million households in our UPC network will expand by an additional 1.7 million premises by 2023/24.
Enrique Rodriguez, Chief Technology Officer, Liberty Global, comments: “Our new 4K box is very small in size, but it packs a mighty punch, giving our customers a cutting-edge 4K viewing experience across the full spectrum of live, on-demand and streamed content. Moreover, the 4K Mini TV Box combines technological innovation with our long-standing commitment to sustainability, delivering a world-class viewing experience while reducing energy consumption and use of plastics.”
