Siemens Gigaset (SHC) and Jungo Ltd., a leading provider of broadband value-added service solutions, are joining forces to supply network owners and internet service providers with next-generation advanced-service-gateways. Siemens’ Gigaset Gateways powered by Jungo's OpenRG™ software platform will enable service providers to offer their customers new services and home entertainment applications, such as internet protocol television (IPTV) and video on demand (VOD).
The strategic cooperation between SHC and Jungo leverages the strength of best-of-breed software with a global manufacturer and brand, to open up the opportunity for service providers to offer new innovative services with substantially lower operating costs. The introduction of the advanced joint solution decreases maintenance costs and reduces the development time for new applications. This results in a quicker and easier roll-out of services such as IPTV and VOD.
Jungo’s OpenRG software supports all common home and access networks; enabling a home network to include DSL and cable internet, advanced telephony, fixed mobile convergence (FMC) and home storage. Siemens Gigaset Gateways based on Jungo’s OpenRG residential gateway software enable operators to supply additional applications and services such as high-quality Voice over IP, data security services, video services and remote management. All features and functions are available on a single, open, scalable and ready-to-use platform. The platform can be configured and upgraded remotely.
“The need for bandwidth is constantly growing,” explained Dr. Jochen Eickholt, CEO, SHC. “The demand for moving pictures from the internet is increasing – video portals and services, online gaming and IPTV are all becoming more and more popular and all this can be available only by using state of the art software. Thanks to our partnership with Jungo, Siemens Gigaset now offers a sophisticated, cost-effective, sustainable solution, thereby allowing operators to react flexibly to the growing expectations of their customers.”
Siemens Gigaset Gateways based on OpenRG will be available starting Spring 2008.

Hi Jan Van Boxelaere,
though I am not a Gigaset distributor but a Blogger I will try to help you. In which country is the residence? I will then try to find out which distributor might help you.
btw: I changed your mobile number because of privacy reasons for yourself!
