Transport Stream Outputs
DVB-ASI Outputs
The D9858 transcoder has three DVB-ASI outputs. These outputs can be used as
inputs for multiplexers, groomers or other types of DVB-ASI reception equipment.
DVB-ASI Output
The MPEGoIP output provides a number of output modes including the capability
of carrying a decrypted program for digital tier distribution. This helps ensure that
compressed video programs are efficiently distributed to households equipped with
digital set-top boxes. Digital Program Insertion (DPI) information will also be
available along with the video and audio PIDs (Packet Identifiers) for external ad -
insertion in compressed digital format.
The diagram below shows an example of the D9858 transcoder used in an ASI or
MPEGoIP application.
MPE Output
The Multiprotocol Encapsulation (MPE) output provides a means to carry packet
oriented IP protocols on top of a transport stream. The MPE output receives IP
packets from the transport stream and the IP data can be sent through an Ethernet
switch to an IP router or directly to a receiving device.
