HD MPEG2/H.264 Video Encoders
VL4500 Series
SD/HD MPEG2 and AVC Encoder
VL4500 Series of video encoders allows the MSO to replace the legacy analog audio and video fiber transmitters with a cost effective HD capable multi channel mpeg2 h.264 video encoder. That transport eliminates fiber receivers, encoders and groomers from the headend, thus reducing rack space, power consumption and heat dissipation. The product allows the video encoding and transporting over GigE multiple CableLabs compliant streams, providing a solution for most of the PEG and local video insertion channel loading scenarios.
Closed Caption Support, AFD, Logo Overlay, PiP mode, Ad insertion points, EAS Static image insertion, VLAN support are some of the features that will place the unit right in the MSO’s video environment.
VL4500 Series SRT video transport protocol enables the delivery of high-quality and secure, low-latency video across the public Internet, reducing equipment and transport/service cost.
