The SD/AV10E-QAM (Standard-Definition Encoder) is a 10:1 encoder and multiplexer that accepts up to ten inputs in SD-SDI and NTSC Audio/Video formats, digitizes and MPEG-2 encodes eachinput, and multiplexes the resulting ten streams into one QAM output. The encoder supports Dolby� Digital AC-3 encoding & Closed Captioning, and is equipped with an EAS interface. 

The HDE-2H-QAM (High-DefinitionEncoder) is a 2:1 encoder and multiplexer that accepts up to two inputs in HDMI and component formats, digitizes and MPEG-2 encodes each into a HD (1080i/720p) stream, and multiplexes the resulting two streams into one QAM output. Any combination of input multiplexing is allowed, for example, 2xHDMI, or (1xHDMI) + (1xcomponent). The encoder supports Dolby� Digital AC-3 encoding & Closed Captioning (EIA-608), and is equipped with an EAS interface. HDE-2H-QAM is available now. The HDE-2S-QAM (High-DefinitionEncoder) is identical to HDE-2H-QAM above, but accepts two inputs in HD-SDI and component formats. HDE-2S-QAM is expected to ship in 2Q2011.

The IPAT(IP ASI Transcoder) is the Company's latest release. Designed for IPTV applications, the IPAT is a bi-direction ASI-to-IP transcoder, which accepts MPEG2/4-encoded input streams in 1000Base-T Ethernet (GbE) and ASI formats simultaneously. GbE input is transcoded to ASI output while ASI input is transcoded to GbE output. Two optional modules allow input/output in QAM & 8VSB formats rendering the product suitable for seamless transition of digital video services from coax to cat5 networks and vice versa.
