GF product range – Compact Video Headend
Transmodulation of up to 12 satellite transponders (DVB-S/S2) or terrestrial DVB-T/T2 or CATV DVB-C receiver
channels to up to 16 DVB-C or DVB-T output channels or up to 256 SPTS IP-Streams.
The integrated switching matrix means that it is incredibly simple to assign the various connected polarisation
levels to each receiver tuner and does away with the need for additional external devices. This saves space,
material costs and installation time.
The models with CI slots can be equipped with up to eight CAM modules which can be used for the central
decryption of programmes. The multiplexing functionality at the input of the CI interfaces helps ensure that
the CAM capacity is used in the most effective way with regard to the number of programmes which can be
decrypted simultaneously. This way, programmes from different SAT input transponders or terrestrial channels
can be combined to form a CAM module.
Thanks to the additional multiplexing function at the output, output channels can also be processed in any
combination of programmes. The maximum available bandwidths and data rates of the applicable broadcast
transmission standard – DVB-C or DVB-T – are taken into consideration.
IP-Streamer models can process up to 256 SPTS streams as UDP/RTP Unicast oder Multicast Streams.
Corresponding channel lists can be generate and provide using the SAP protocol or by M3U data, depending
on the connected IP receiver devices.
External content, such as video sequences, can be added to the data flows via the USB ports.
