US-based Broadcom Corporation has partnered Bharti Airtel to provide integrated set-top box (STB) solutions for its direct-to-home (DTH) service. The solution will allow Bharti Airtel to offer additional services, channels, and on-demand and interactive content within the same transponder allocation.

Broadcom's Broadband Communications Group SVP and GM Dan Marotta said, "We are excited to support highly integrated satellite STB solutions that provide advanced services and reduce the overall STB cost for Indian operators."

"We are pleased to be working with Broadcom to deliver digital satellite services to India's TV market," said Bharti Telemedia executive director N Arjun.
