MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 (Video over IP): RF In Over IP Transport Stream Video Servers

Home >> MPEG-2/4, H.264 (Video Over IP) >> QPSK, QAM, DVB-C, or DVB-S Over IP Servers for Telcos, Cable Companies, Hotels, and Universities

Professional grade, rackmounted, DVB to IP gateway that integrates our well qualified PC bus based satellite QPSK, terrestrial DVB T,or 8VSB , and cable QAM based RF receivers and demodulates and routes selected transport streams to any MAC adress via IP. Typically the desired streams are streamed in real time using UDP or RTP via IP multicast or unicast streams to IP set top boxes (STB's) such as Amino, or designated VLC or MPlayer equipped PC clients for viewing. This content server architecture assumes you have proper IP provisioning and this type of system is typically deployed in "closed" systems such as hotels, convention centers, and corporate backbones where bandwidth is dedicated and is used for this purpose only

Cost Effective, Continuously loopable, Multi Session, Multi Program Transport Stream Player and Recorder with IP input and Controlled Rate TCP/IP Output with GUI based Menu for both Validation and Testing of High Speed Fiber Optic Links. Supports H.264 Transport Streams. A very cost effective piece of test equipment that can continuously send out 10-20 separate but simultaneous 38 Mbps MPTS streams to 20-50 separate IP devices via its Gig/E port.

Very High Performance 2RU MPEG-2 or H.264 IP Video Server with Very High Performance intelligent "Custom" dual channel 10 Gbps IP Accelerators, Proprietary Real Time "minimal OS", and a Proprietary "Interleaved Memory Array" based caching algorithm all designed to serve many thousands of Standard or High Definition Streams simultaneously to many thousand of clients. Solid State Disk Storage Arrays provide the reliability and maintainability that is crucial in these high performance deployments. This architecture will scale linearly and a Rack of MegaServers can serve 160,000 clients at the same time. Truly Amazing! This server must reside on the Internet Backbone at or near an "Network Access Point" since it will consume considerable backbone bandwidth . This is not for use by mere mortals!! Ideal for use by telcos and others who are architecting "the future" with IPTV.
