General
Size:
3.25”W x 1.375”H x 8.00”D
Weight:
8 oz
Program Filtering and Grooming:
Encoded programs may be disabled or sent to one or both output ports – ASI
or QAM, user selectable. The output timing is restamped and null packets are
managed as required.
Multiplexer:
Built in multiplexer circuitry combines the outputs of all enabled encoders in
an EH24 into multi-program transport streams, one to the QAM output and
one to the ASI output.
MPEG Program Numbers:
Configurable by operator. If not individually configured, default MPEG pro-
gram numbers in the output transport stream will be assigned sequentially,
corresponding to the encoder number. The leftmost encoder input, as viewed
from the rear panel, will be # 1.
ASI Output:
Any or all of the enabled encoders may be directed to the ASI output by
means of the user selectable program filter.
QAM Modulator:
Any or all of the enabled encoder outputs may be directed to the QAM
Modulator by means of the user selectable program filter.
Output Symbol Rate:
1 to 7 MSps
Modes/FEC:
ITU-A: 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 QAM
ITU-B (DigiCipher):
64, 256, 1024 QAM
