IRD-2900 Series Applications
Distribution for Terrestrial Broadcast
The IRD-2900 enables terrestrial distribution through output of analog audio and video signals to RF modulators for
VHF/UHF terrestrial broadcast. It supports migration to
DVB-T by providing digital ASI transport stream output to a CODFM modulator and DVB-T transmitter.
In addition to live broadcasting, the IRD-2900 supports extraction of encapsulated video content as MPE data for off-line distribution. This is particularly valuable for distribution of syndicated content to network affiliates.
Distribution to Cable Headend
The IRD-2900 receives and decrypts DVB-S or DVB-S2 content. Content to be distributed as analog is decoded by the IRD-2900, then modulated by an analog modulator for distribution. For distribution as digital content, the IRD converts the content to ASI or IP format, which is then multiplexed by a Scopus IVG (Integrated Video Gateway) and output for cable distribution via a QAM modulator.
This solution supports digital simulcast of content in analog and digital formats for cost-effective network migration to alldigital format.
Distribution to IPTV Headend
The IRD-2900 receives and decrypts DVB-S or DVB-S2 content, and outputs content both over IP for streaming and over SDI for re-encoding. When streaming content, the device can be configured to filter and forward only a subset of the programs in the TS, for output over the IP interface. The filter is applied either to services (dynamic), or to PIDs (static).
The output TS is configured as either VBR or CBR, with
NULL stuffing enabling it to fit a configured Bandwidth.
The IRD-2900 can also decapsulate IP over MPEG (MPE) and output it over an IP network.
IP Contribution
The IRD-2900 enables cost-efficient contribution of highquality video content via IP networks. The IRD offers extensive advanced IP functionalities including configurable de-jittering buffers that facilitate trade-offs between latency and network burstiness resiliency; Pro-MPEG FEC (forward error correction) for excellent packet loss recovery; dual Ethernet inputs for link redundancy protection against failure of directly connected switches; dual sources over IP for logical redundancy protection against source failure.
