The TXS 3453 Transcoder is the newest processing
platform in Sencore’s Media Delivery Solution portfo-
lio. The TXS 3453 is capable of transcoding up to 16
HD channels of:
• MPEG2 video
• H.264
• H.264 video to MPEG2
This transcoding platform is available in both a Gold
and Platinum model. The Gold version is capable of
high-quality transcoding with density capabilities of up
to 16 programs in a single rack unit. The Platinum ver-
sion is capable of very high quality transcoding at
state-of-the-art bitrates at density capabilities of up to
8 programs in a single rack unit. Both Gold and
Platinum units have ASI and IP I/O standard with
optional Terrestrial and Satellite RF inputs.
The TXS 3453 provides quality, density and price in a
single chassis. With the flexibility of inputs and outputs
this box can fit into many applications. This chassis
eliminates the prior need for multiple racks of equip-
ment while saving power.
