TANDBERG EN5930 SD Encoder for MPEG-4 AVC

Overview

Extensive video pre-processing helps get the best picture, whatever the source. A proven history of providing customers with in-field performance improvement upgrades over time, keeps our customers ahead of the market.

Designed with all the proven system interconnect and control that our MPEG-2 product range enjoys today. In combination with the rest of the TANDBERG Television product range this makes MPEG-4 AVC deployable today in any broadcast or broadband application.

The EN5930 can provide MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 AVC encoding of same source in a single solution. This dual format encoding enables support migration of your consumer base from MPEG-2, or operators to broadcast across simultaneous multi-networks.

Option for standalone variable bit-rate operation allow IPTV operators to maximize picture quality while harvesting capacity for Internet data traffic delivery to the home. Option for Reflex™ statistical multiplexing enable satellite, cable and terrestrial operators to maximize picture quality using bit-rate sharing techniques.

Options for encoding of a low resolution, low bit-rate simultaneous Picture- in-Picture (PIP) service, and direct IP multicasting from the encoder enable the EN5930 to be deployed in any IP distribution or TV over xDSL application.
