TERRA sdi480 IPTV streamer allows for the selection of up to 100 unencrypted satellite TV channels from up to 8 x DVB-S2/DVB-S transponders and their distribution via Ethernet (LAN) network based on twisted-pair cabling. The output IPTV stream with effective throughput up to 400 Mbps is usually provided to IPTV receivers via network switches. The use of multicast technique considerably saves the network resources.
Additionally, the sdi480 module can stream any material provided via USB port in the form of MPEG-2 TS (Transport Stream).
Thanks to television distribution technology based on IP, the cabling in a building can be limited only to one (data + IPTV) or two (separate for data and for IPTV) UTP/FTP/STP cable. In addition to low cost of such cabling, the users get access to additional interactive features, and the programming can be adapted to their specific requirements.
One of the main advantages of the Terra IPTV solution is no need for any middleware software between the headend and the receivers. As a result, the system is much cheaper (no software license fees) than other solutions and very simple in both configuration and operation. A unique feature of the system is the fact that the terminal units - IPTV receivers - do not require any configuration, which can be of great importance in the case of larger networks. They automatically detect any changes in the local network or the programming.
Satellite signals in all professional SMATV systems should be fed from QUATRO LNBs.
Key Features
- Conversion of unencrypted DVB-S/S2 signals to IP stream
- Support for EN50494 standard - possibility of feeding the streamer with DVB-S/S2 signals from SRM521 multiswitch only via single coaxial cable
- Conversion of DVB channels from 8 transponders, max 100 channels/module
- USB port allowing for streaming of material in .ts format
- Possibility of creating thematic lists (e.g. entertainment, sport channels) that are automatically detected by IPTV receivers
- Possibility of watching TV on PCs, laptops etc. running free applications
- IPTV receivers have recording option and access to some web services (YouTube etc.)
- Use of twisted-pair cables as the transmission medium
- Easy way to extend the transmission range (through the use of media converter and optical fibre)
- Low power consumption and power redundancy
- IP multicast technique saving LAN resources
- Unique communication protocol allowing fully automatic configuration of IPTV receivers
Seamless Integration
The sdi480 IPTV streamer can integrate seamlessly with other Terra professional TV equipment such as:
- media converters that allow for transmission of the IP signal via optical medium
- IP (100/1000 Mbps) to 4x DVB-T transmodulator mix440 that converts IP stream to DVB-T COFDM standard
