Professional solutions for ADSL networks
A typical network overview
Powerful head-ends for digital broadcasting
Appear TV offers ADSL operators powerful head-ends for the acquisition, descrambling, scrambling and streaming of digital content over their networks.
The advanced features of its equipment, together with the focus on simplifying deployment gives operators real operational and business advantages.
Total flexibility in content acquisition
Appear TV head-ends are designed to enable operators to have a flexible content acquisition strategy and a wide selection of available services. Appear TV’s SC2000 can receive content from a variety of sources, including satellite (DVB-S/S2), terrestrial (DVB-T), cable (QAM), IP networks or local ASI feeds.
Selected services can then be descrambled (using all major CA systems) before being streamed over IP or ASI. Appear TV’s intuitive web interface and SOAP-based architecture make integration with third party network management equipment easy.
High performance scrambling and streaming
Appear TV’s professional scrambling solution enables encryption of selected services (CSA and AES scrambling) for both live TV and VOD to enable complete control of content encryption and revenue strategy.
High capacity streaming supports MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 for SD and HD services. The high functionality of Appear TV equipment includes full PSI/SI regeneration and the addition of service related PIDs. Its intuitive interface makes it extremely easy to define SPTS or MPTS services, encrypt them and assign to multicasts using a drag and drop approach.
Redundancy
Appear TV’s award winning total redundancy solution enables operators to build reliability into, inside and across networks for ‘always-on’ functionality.
