STB devices allow users to access various types of TV content, including cable and satellite TV, internet TV, on-demand content, and much more.
The HP44H is the next-generation Android TV set-top box from SKYWORTH, designed to enhance the video experience over home WiFi networks. As more devices connect to the internet, current home WiFi environments often become congested and overloaded, causing video streaming performance to suffer due to poor connections.
To deliver better video performance, the HP44H STB integrates AV1, which is believed to reduce bandwidth consumption by 20% compared to the current HEVC. As an open codec, AV1 is widely supported by most popular streaming services, including Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, Apple, Facebook, Samsung, and many others.
This device also supports WiFi 6 (802.11ax), the next standard for WiFi, offering faster connection speeds and enhanced signal strength, significantly reducing interference between devices in congested home WiFi networks.
In addition to improving video performance over home WiFi networks, the HP44H incorporates SKYWORTH’s STRATOS IoT solution. The new WiFi modules integrated into the STB by SKYWORTH deliver a 30% increase in coverage and connection capacity, enabling the HP44H to become a powerful home hub supporting the connection of more devices for home automation.
