E5784 / E5788 Voyager MPEG-2 High Definition DSNG Encoders

Around the globe, high definition (HD) market development is underway. Broadcasters and satellite news gathering organizations are covering more live events, sports and news spots in HD to satisfy customer demand for HD content and to generate competitive advantage. To meet those needs, TANDBERG Television is offering the E5784 and E5788 MPEG-2 HD platform, a cost-effective and reliable HD contribution encoding solution that provides premium HD quality at the lowest possible bitrate and price.

MPEG-2 is still the best option for very high quality contribution and the E5784 is available in 4:2:0 HD encoding with a license-key upgrade to the E5788 4:2:2 version. Both versions include an integrated satellite modulator for either IF or L-Band frequency output, supporting DVB-S2 hardware as standard, which can reduce bandwidth consumption by up to 35%. With DVB-S2, customers can free up transponder space for additional HD channels or other advanced services. TANDBERG Television's E5784 and E5788 Voyager encoder platform is a versatile 2RU MPEG-2 HD platform that delivers an extensive array of optional performance-enhancing upgrades, outstanding multi-channel audio options and unmatched warranty and maintenance support.

E5784/E5788 Overview

Flexible Options for Serving a Wide Range of Customer Needs

The E5784 and E5788 are easily adaptable to a wide range of HD satellite newsgathering applications with two option card slots available for upgrades and feature enhancements. Customers seeking top quality remultiplexing can choose TANDBERG Television's powerful REMUX card for MPEG multiplexer and multi-channel MCPC capability. The unit is multi-format and offers standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) for maximum flexibility.

4:2:2 Encoding for Highest Quality Contribution

The E5788 provides MPEG-2 HD encoding at 4:2:2 and a maximum bit-rate of 90Mbps for the highest quality contribution links. It is also an excellent choice for HD Cinema applications. Both the E5784 and E5788 feature TANDBERG Television's patented advanced noise reduction technology based on 15 years of in-house encoding development for the highest picture quality.

Unrivalled Manufacturers Support

News gathering organizations cannot afford to have their truck down for any reason. Should it be necessary to return a unit for upgrade or service, TANDBERG Television has a unique advance loan scheme with ready-to-ship spares always in stock to keep customers on-air. The E5784 and E5788 platform comes with a standard two-year warranty that together with the advance loan scheme offers unrivalled support.

DVB-S2 Capability Provides Major Bandwidth Savings

DVB-S2 represents a step-change in bandwidth efficiency offering a 35% increase over DVBS. TANDBERG Television offers DVB-S2 hardware support as standard. Customers can therefore activate DVB-S2 features via licence key at any time.
