4. SG9 Broadband cable and TV TU-T Study Group 9 (SG9) carries out studies on the use of telecommunication systems in the distribution of television and sound programs supporting advanced capabilities such as ultra-high definition and 3D TV. This work also covers the use of cable and hybrid networks primarily designed for the distribution of television and sound programs to the home as integrated broadband networks to provide interactive voice, video and data services, including Internet access.

6. What we do in IRG AVA The IRG-AVA studies topics related to audiovisual media accessibility and aims at developing draft Recommendations for "Access Systems" that can be used for all media delivery systems, including broadcast, cable, Internet, and IPTV.

7. The IRG also addresses matters contributing to the coordination of the standardization work of the involved ITU-T and ITU-R groups and collaborates with other SDOs and other audiovisual media organizations (e.g., forums and consortia, research institutes and academia)
