A major US systems integrator offering technology infrastructure and software solutions and high-end equipment to telecom and cable operators and electric utility companies, has received the first batch of SML-5112W set-top boxes designed by SmartLabs.

SML-5112W is the latest high-performance SmartLabs STB with Ultra HD support. Its full-scale case has a new impressive design. The STB is built on BCM7251S chipset with a 4x4 wireless module for unicast and multicast transmission.
