EDBoX 1000 SD / HD Decoder

Description:

EDBoX one of the leaders of encoding and decoding systems offer in a compact one-rack unit the latest in H.264/AVC (MPEG-4 part 10) 4:2:0/ 4:2:2* high quality standard defi nition compression technology, to help optimize bandwidth utilization in digital transmission setups. The optimized performance of ED BoX MPEG-4 and MPEG-2 encoders and decoders provides enhanced bandwidth effi ciency with ultra-low bit rate encoding and decoding.

EDBoX systems are used in 24/7 environment e.g. studio links, news contribution, SNG and local TV content feeds for IPTV-headends and to achieve broadcast quality at lowest bit rate. With its powerful and market leading performance it enables operators to transmit many more channels within their available bandwidth over satellite, terrestrial networks, digital cable and IPTV providers.

Product Overview

The EDBoX 1000 SD / HD multi-format decoder offers the premise to decode all of the video formats and resolutions in realtime be it MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 SD or HD as an option. Control of the decoder is supported via 4 line front panel interface, on board web application and SNMP. Two 1GB Ethernet ports are available, one for administration and the other one for streaming input. Additionally the decoder offers the possibility of IP forwarding to send out the incoming stream to various IP addresses as unicast and/ or mulitcast. EDBoX solutions offer a lot of extensive features where the user can control from every EDBoX unit any EDBoX unit via the frontpanel or over the webside, called EDBoX mapping. This offers the customer a great option to “see what happens” on local- and remoteside. Fabulous other features like autostart, video bitrate on the fly within 100ms, packetlosts realtime information, forward error correction, pinging and tracert the remote unit(s) and our market leading network line measurement tool to check the networkline between encoder and decoder makes the EBoX 1000 SD / HD Decoder one of the leading units on the market.
