IPAT (IP ASI Transcoder) is a bi-direction IP ó ASI transcoder that accepts MPEG2/4-encoded input
streams in 1000Base-T Ethernet (GbE) and ASI formats simultaneously. GbE input is transcoded to ASI
output while ASI input is transcoded to GbE output.
Two factory-installed optional modules (the RF IN and the RF OUT) allow input/output in QAM & 8VSB
formats rendering the product suitable for a wider range of applications.
An integrated web server provides comprehensive GUI-based local and remote control/monitoring thru
any standard Web browser via a front-panel 10/100BaseT interface.
IPAT IP-ASI Transcoder - 1xGbE ó 1xASI
Features
ASI Input/Output interface
• Supports Single or Multi Protocol Transport Services (SPTS or MPTS)
• Performs PCR (Program Clock Reference) correction
• Allows Null Packet insertion & deletion
GbE Input/Output interface
• Provides robust protection against IP network jitter and delay
• Performs PCR (Program Clock Reference) replacement
• Supports Uni- and Multi-cast thru RTP/UDP protocols
• Supports IPv4, ARP, IGMPv2, and ICMP protocols
• Supports variable and constant bitrates
Optional RF modules
• RF IN/OUT modules support both 8VSB and Annex A/B QAM modes
• RF IN module accepts 8VSB free-to-air & NTSC CATV standard channels 2-135
• RF OUT module provides NTSC CATV standard/sub-band channels 2-135/T7-T14
• RF OUT module provides output level of +40 dBmV
