    CABLE CONGRESS 2011 – LUCERNE. The launch of UPC’s new home gateway known as Horizon has been delayed for several months, Broadband TV News has learnt. Earlier this week Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries said a launch in Switzerland during the first half of 2012 was realistic. With the Netherlands slated to be the first UPC territory for deployment, this would suggest a deployment there in the latter half of 2011, rather than the mid-year as had previously been assumed. Switzerland itself was initially anticipated to receive its first supplies during 2011.

    “We’re still keeping to the timetable, just that the timetable is now later than originally planned,” a senior technology source told Broadband TV News. The precise reason for the hold up remains unclear.

    A spokesman for UPC pointed out that the company had never made its schedule public. He added there was “No delay to the programme.”
