AT&T U-verse IPTV Technology

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV)

Forget watching television through traditional broadcasting and cable methods. AT&T is using the Internet with computer networking to bring HD television right into your home.

How it works

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) works by plugging your high speed Internet connection into a set-top box that's connected to your television. Once the connection is made, the set-top box assembles the code from your phone line into video and audio. AT&T U-verse broadcasts in both standard definition and high definition. Each TV in the home must be hooked up to a set-top box in order to receive the signal.

Along with delivering television services, IPTV also delivers a high speed Internet connection and when available phone service that includes all the features you expect plus more. This idea of bundling all three services is commonly referred to as a "triple play."

Advantages

What IPTV offers:

  • IPTV technology delivers your TV, Voice home phone service* and high speed Internet thru one connection and one bill
  • Digital picture quality is much better than traditional analog
  • IPTV delivers a fully interactive on-screen programming guide
  • Video on Demand services
  • Get picture in picture technology regardless of your TV make and model

Availability

AT&T offers IPTV technology anywhere AT&T U-verse is available. Check if it's available in your area.
