IPTV - TV & Video Over Your LAN. Encoders, TV Gateways, IPTV Receivers and Video on-Demand: Live TV and Radio over the LAN Live TV and Radio over the LAN ================================================================================ roxanna on 17/01/2007 00:00:00 Use AvediaStream TVgateways for any building, campus, or metropolitan area in which live TV and radio are required, without the added expense of a separate cable network solely for TV. *Distribute live broadcast TV (DVB-T/T2, DVB-S/S2, DVB-C, ATSC, QAM) over your existing IP network *Stream Standard Definition (SD) and High Definition (HD) MPEG channels *Add display devices and users without degrading picture quality *De-scramble compliant encrypted channels using built-in CAM Module *Integrate with broadcast-quality equipment using ASI connectors Exterity AvediaStream TVgateway blades must be installed in one of three AvediaStream chassis, which are designed for a wide range of organisational needs and budgets. Intro LIVE TV AND RADIO OVER THE LAN AvediaStream TVgateway blades capture live TV and radio to make the channels available to end-users over your building, campus or metropolitan-area IP network. Typically, a digital receiver connected to a terrestrial TV aerial (DVB-T or ATSC), a satellite dish (DVB-S/S2), or cable TV connection (DVB-C) supplies the signal to the TVgateway, which captures an entire multiplex of SD and HD broadcasted channels. It then streams these, simultaneously, as individual MPEG channels on the network. As part of an Exterity Building IPTV solution, AvediaStream TVgateways deliver four primary benefits: *Easily add and distribute multiple channels to hundreds or thousands of users by managing TV as a network service; adding display devices does not degrade picture quality *More granular control over channel access than traditional coaxial systems: by user or group *Better return on network investment: highly-efficient use of network bandwidth via standard multicast technology *Reduce demand for internet bandwidth; channels are multicast from an internal source, rather than delivered as multiple high-bandwidth streams through the internet gateway DVB-T AVEDIASTREAM G4130 Use me to stream live TV for terrestrial sources (DVB-T) *Provide live terrestrial news, sports, entertainment and educational TV *Streams both SD and HD* Channels simultaneously *Two DVB-T tuners per blade for twice the number of potential TV or radio channels compared to single tuner devices View the AvediaStream g4130 Technical Specifications datasheet. *Not applicable for UK Freeview - this requires one of our DVBS/S2 gateways DVB-T2 AVEDIASTREAM G4230 Use me to stream the latest terrestrial HD TV channels (DVB-T2) *Supports both DVB-T and DVB-T2, streams SD and HD simultaneously *Streams all radio and TV channels from two DVB-T2 multiplexes per blade for lower cost per channel *PID filtering for fine-grained control over audio, subtitles and other channel metadata View the AvediaStream g4230 Technical Specifications datasheet. AVEDIASTREAM G4235 Use me to stream the latest encrypted terrestrial HD TV channels (DVB-T2) *Supports both DVB-T and DVB-T2, streams SD and HD simultaneously *Uses professional 3rd-party CAM for multiple channel decoding *PID filtering for fine-grained control over audio, subtitles and other channel metadata View the AvediaStream g4235 Technical Specifications datasheet. DVB-S/S2 AVEDIASTREAM G4210 Use me to stream live TV from satellite (DVB-S/S2) *Provide live satellite news, sports, entertainment and educational TV *Streams both SD and HD channels simultaneously *Two DVB-S/S2 tuners per blade for twice the number of potential channels compared to single tuner devices View the AvediaStream g4210 Technical Specifications datasheet. AVEDIASTREAM G4215 Use me to stream live encrypted TV from satellite (DVB-S/S2) *Descramble and distribute live encrypted satellite news, sports, entertainment and educational TV channels *Streams both SD and HD channels simultaneously *Streams all radio and TV channels available from a DVB-S/DVB-S2 multiplex using only one blade *Works with standard 3rd party Conditional Access Modules (CAMs) for decryption View the AvediaStream g4215 Technical Specifications datasheet. DVB-C AVEDIASTREAM G4150 Use me to stream distribute live cable TV channels (DVB-C) *Stream all radio and TV channels from two DVB-C multiplexes per blade *Works with SD or HD channels *An AvediaStream c1110 chassis fully loaded with blades of this type will stream up to 20 multiplexes simultaneously View the AvediaStream g4150 Technical Specifications datasheet. AVEDIASTREAM G4155 Use me to descramble and distribute live encrypted cable TV channels(DVB-C with CAM) *Stream all radio and TV channels from one DVB-C multiplex per blade *Uses professional 3rd party CAM for multiple channel decrypting *Works with SD or HD channels View the AvediaStream g4155 Technical Specifications datasheet. ATSC and QAM AVEDIASTREAM G4170 Use me to stream live terrestrial (ATSC) or cable (QAM) TV and radio *Stream live TV and radio to make channels available to end-users over your building or campus IP network (LAN). *A terrestrial TV antenna (ATSC) or cable connection (QAM) supplies the signal to the TVgateway. *Supports multiple SD and HD broadcasted channels. View the AvediaStream g4170 Technical Specifications datasheet. ASI AVEDIASTREAM G4190 Use me to stream content from equipment with an ASI output *Stream all radio and TV channels from an ASI multiplex *Streams both SD and HD channels simultaneously *Integrates with broadcast equipment to support best-quality, uncompressed video sources View the AvediaStream g4190 Technical Specifications datasheet.
