SIDSA is an audiovisual technology provider active in semiconductors, conditional access, digital headends and overall project management. SIDSA's digital TV portfolio includes contribution and distribution network solutions, broadcast-to-IPTV EtherTV gateways and terrestrial and mobile digital TV platforms - POLARplus - where the company has developed the most compact but fully featured headend product line in the market place. SIDSA complements its headend line with KeyFly2.0Xtreme, a smartcard-less conditional access system, specifically designed to offer the maximum level of security and flexibility in horizontal pay-TV markets, such as DTT. SIDSA also offers ultra-secure, state-of-the-art CAMs (conditional access modules) for third party smartcard-based CA.

One of the main commercial benefits of MHEG-5 is its complete cost effectiveness in delivering high levels of TV interactivity, allowing operators to offer a whole host of compelling new revenue generating services using genuine open standards technology. This keeps both deployment and running costs low. The scalability and flexibility of MHEG-5 means that its capabilities are constantly expanding and evolving to meet ever changing consumer demands, and Latens will be aligning itself to technology that has already been proven in the market.
