UDcast is a provider of solutions enabling full Internet Protocol (IP) over broadcast media, in the areas of IP networks over satellite and servers for DVB-H, DVB-SH, ATSC and WiMAX standards compliant television on mobile networks.
UDcast's satellite solutions include Wan Optimization appliances optimized for satellite infrastructures, with optimizations targeted at some specific satellite markets.
UDcast's Mobile TV systems have been used successfully in 70 percent of DVB-H trials and commercial deployments worldwide.
UDcast's solutions are based upon UDcast's standards-based core technology. Heavily involved in international standards organisations such as ETSI and the IETF, UDcast makes satellite and digital terrestrial networks transparent to IP, enabling the use of standard IP protocols and ensuring full IP functionality.
UDcast was founded in June 2000 by members of the INRIA research center who had helped develop IETF RFC3077 on Unidirectional Link Routing (UDLR) - the UD stands for unidirectional, and the cast for broadcast. UDcast became a leader in UDLR-related products.
OneAccess announced on February 3rd 2011 that they had completed the acquisition of UDCast and as at November 2011 their web-site is no longer responsive. [1]
