Supporting the latest user interface (UI) options, case customization and the addition of regional and unique Audio and Video Device Libraries, SMK’s remote controls put subscribers in complete command of their entertainment services, while providing PayTV operators with solutions that, designed and manufactured locally, reduce logistics, call center, purchasing and engineering costs.

“Providing intuitive control of advanced PayTV content, SMK’s remote controls are designed to optimize subscriber engagement and loyalty,” said Paul Evans, President SMK Electronics Corporation. “As PayTV operators compete to expand services throughout South America, success will depend in part upon the effectiveness of the end user’s interface to these services—the set-top box remote control.
