Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système de distribution de divertissement multimédia à bande large utilisant un mode de transfert asynchrone (ATM) et une ligne d'abonné numérique (DSL) ou d'autres techniques de distribution à bande large destinés à distribuer le contenu multimédia à des boîtiers de décodeurs (STB) de foyers ou de bureaux. Ce système permet de fournir les services suivants par l'intermédiaire d'un boîtier décodeur: télévision de réseau à effets interactifs (IEF), affiliés de réseaux locaux à IEF, films sur demande avec pause/relance, prélecture d'un CD de musique sur demande, accès à Internet ultra rapide (disponible à partir d'un poste de télévision et d'un ordinateur domestique), service téléphonique (vocal) ordinaire, répondeur téléphonique/messagerie électronique vocale virtuels et l'option de lignes multiples, vidéoconférence (avec d'autres abonnés du système), accès à distance pour participer à des réseaux informatiques commerciaux, diverses cartes à microcircuit programmables. Lorsque le système décrit par cette invention met en oeuvre les techniques de distribution ATM-DSL, il présente un avantage majeur comparé aux systèmes traditionnels dans lesquels on peut utiliser des lignes téléphoniques existantes non terminées pour distribuer le contenu sur le segment final (6 000 pieds) de transmission. On peut les compléter avec une seconde ligne DSL à paire torsadée ou avec une liaison VDSL, lorsque l'on souhaite une augmentation de la capacité (par exemple, plus d'un boîtier décodeur).
