MPEG-2 Encoder
HD Encoder Model D9050
Description
The HD MPEG-2 Encoder Model D9050 is the
right choice for any operator who wants to
compress high-definition video using highly
efficient MPEG-2 compression technology. This
product is the second generation HD encoder from Scientific Atlanta.
The D9050 HD Encoder provides many benefits in multi-channel encoding systems due to efficient statistical
multiplex performance. With low-delay connections to the Regulus
Statistical Multiplex Controller, the D9050 HD
Encoder can be part of a statistical multiplex together with other HD and SD programs. The 4:2:0 encoding
includes our PreSightPlus dual pass architecture with advanced rate control.
Additionally, embedded audio as well as support of closed captions transferred in the HD-SDI means efficient
routing and simpler back-up system designs.
Further to the encoding format 4:2:0, the D9050 HD Encoder also supports 4:2:2 encoding for single channel
encoding in contribution applications, and can be combined with DOLBY-E transport and BISS-E scrambling.
To provide efficient management, the encoder supports SNMP protocol for the PowerVu
®
Network Centre (PNC),
ROSA
and other third party control system applications. Being an integrated part of the PNC control system
means that secure and easily managed high-definition services can be controlled on all PowerVu systems
including the D9050 HD Encoder with conditional access.
The D9050 HD Encoder supports both cost-efficient, single-channel applications as well as high-performance
statistical multiplex systems, providing a high-definition business case for any transmission network.
