Supplier: DataTronix
Description: 12 Source SD RCA to QAM Encoder Modulator

The DataTronix 12-source Standard Definition RCA to QAM Encoder Modulator converts up to twelve standard-definition composite video sources into four digital QAM channels for distribution over a coaxial cable network. Designed for professional video distribution systems, this rack-mount encoder accepts 12 RCA composite video inputs with stereo audio and encodes them using MPEG-2 video compression before modulating them into four agile QAM RF channels.

With 12 RCA composite video inputs, the unit accepts video from sources such as media players, security cameras, satellite receivers, or digital signage players. These inputs are encoded using MPEG-2 video compression and modulated into four configurable QAM digital channels, which can then be distributed through a coaxial network to televisions with integrated QAM tuners. This makes the unit well suited for TV distribution systems that need to support older SD digital televisions or cannot distribute HD content due to rights limitations.

The compact 1RU rack-mount design makes installation simple, while the web-based management interface allows easy configuration of input channels, RF frequencies, and system settings from any connected computer.

Key Features:

• 12 RCA composite video inputs with stereo audio
• Converts 12 video sources to 4 digital QAM channels
• MPEG-2 video encoding for SD video sources
• Supports MPEG-1, AAC-LC, HE-AAC, and AC3 audio formats
• RF output range 54–864 MHz
• Supports 64QAM and 256QAM modulation
• Web-based configuration and monitoring interface
• High-quality digital RF output: 50+ dBmV
• Typical MER Levels: 38+ dB
• Standard 1RU rack-mount chassis

Supplier: Vantiva
Description: Add important local content (property info, entertainment, etc.) via HDMI to IP conversion, and combine your on-property content with the ease of use, remote access, and distribution features of the COM3000 system.

Three inputs of locally sourced content via (2) HDMI inputs or a single USB allow for the combination of content from multiple sources into one easy-to-set-up device. MPEG-2, H.264 (AVC), or H.265 (HEVC), and Dolby Digital Audio (AC3), AAC, and MP3 support (PCM) enable the flexibility to receive a wide range of content from various audio and video formats. (HDCP protected content not supported).

The HDMI2 can operate independently of other sources or can be set up and managed by the COM51 interface, with the ability to combine content from this device with content from other COM3000 sources, if desired.

• Each HDMI2 dual-channel blade requires (1) Vantiva QAM modulation stream
• Unit compatible with COM2000 chassis, is NOT compatible with COM1000 chassis
• COM1000 and COM2000 tuner blades (COM24 and/or COM46) do not have interface tosupport this product.

Supplier: Technicolor
Description: For properties that cannot make a complete conversion to digital content, the NTSC-8 allows for the COM51 content to be output both in digital format to the QAM as well as an IP output to the NTSC-8 which will provide a NTSC formatted analog output. This replaces any requirement for a stacked receiver solution using mini-mods to duplicate channels for fitness centers or other TV’s unable to support HD or SD digital content. The NTSC-8 is completely agile for each of the 8 outputs allowing for flexibility in RF plant management.

Supplier: Vantiva
Description: The Vantiva QAM4 is designed specifically for the COM3000, a digital headend solution that supports commercial environment DIRECTV satellite services.
