TELLAR
MPEG-2 Decoder
The S MPEG-2 Decoder is intended for professional decoding of a single
TELLAR
program comprising one video signal with up to two stereo audio channels. Programs
can be decoded according to MP@ML or 4:2:2P@ML.
The S can be set up and configured individually for specific professional con-
TELLAR
tribution and distribution applications. The unit can be equipped with modules for
the:
• network input (E1, E3 and DS3)
• Transport Stream (TS) input (ASI, SPI or V.35 input)
• TS output (ASI restamping output).
• SMPTE 310M output
• audio output (analog audio, digital AES/EBU audio output, audio embedded in the
SDI signal)
• video output (PAL, PAL M, NTSC and SDI output)
The S will be equipped with the options you have ordered for your unit. This

for mounting in a standard 19" rack. Because of the low power consumption of the
unit, no external ventilation is necessary.
When stacking several units on top of each other, air separation plates must be
mounted. For details on how to do, see
With the ROSA Device Configuration Shell you configure the unit and set all the
necessary parameters. ROSA enables full control and monitoring functionality of the

• DVB compliant transport stream ASI, SPI or V.35

The optional ASI restamping output can used for converting G.703 network inputs to
ASI formats used by external equipment such as a DVB-C modulator.
