Kreatel Communications AB was a Swedish technology company, [1] [2] based in Linköping, that provided set-top boxes and software platforms for IPTV systems. It launched its IP-based set-top box (IP-STB) system in September 2000 and first delivered it in volume to Italian broadband operator FASTWEB in Spring 2001. In early 2006, the company was purchased by Motorola.
Kreatel is a business-to-business company, and sells its products to telecom operators, broadband operators ( ISPs) and utility companies (with fiber networks) which deploy IPTV and Triple Play (voice telephony, video and Internet access) services to consumers.
The most common services that the Kreatel IP-STB System is used for are Video on Demand - VOD, Internet on TV, Electronic Program Guide - EPG, games, and video telephony, but it also enables a connection between a PC and the TV set to access personal content from the set-top box.
The company was founded in 1996 as a provider of Least Cost Telephony Routers, but during the early 2000s switched its business over to digital TV.
