The HDDM (High-Definition Demodulator Module) is a low cost professional video decoder that can decode a single IP transport stream, off-air digital 8VSB channel, or a program from a clear QAM source. The unit accepts content in either MPEG-2 or H.264 video formats and outputs simultaneously 1xSDI, 1xHDMI, 1xComponent, and 1xComposite video interfaces with embedded audio or separate analog audio. SDI outputs are available in 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, or SD-SDI formats. The unit can be used as a stand-alone high quality decoder, or used in conjunction with other IP encoders, to provide an end-toend IP video delivery solution. Comprehensive remote monitoring and control is accomplished using any standard Web browser via a rear-panel 10/100 Ethernet connection. FEATURES AND BENEFITS Decodes Off-Air, Clear QAM, and IP Supports simultaneous video outputs Supports MPEG-2 and H.264 content Closed Captioning (future firmware release) Rack-mountable, two across in 1RU Accepts VBR (Variable Bit Rate) and CBR (Constant Bit Rate) video streams Unicast or Multicast (IGMPv2 & IGMPv3) Separate Web-based management port for local and remote control Front Panel Display with on-screen menus for easy setup Supports TV's/projectors through the expansion port, when used with optional external RS-232 adapter (Stock #6671) Pass-through of Dolby® encoded embedded audio (future firmware release) APPLICATIONS Service Providers or Content Producers: Point-to-point 3G-SDI, HD-SDI or SD-SDI transport over managed or unmanaged IP networks Education Environments: Select content from internal IP or RF clear QAM network Command & Control Centers: Back-haul live feeds Broadcast Monitoring: Local or remote video production viewing, including live events Corporate Meetings or Events: Transport live video House of Worship: Expand to multiple locations When the HDDM is used with our LiveCast encoder or our HDIP encoder, along with a Zixi Link license it can provide a reliable IP video transport from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. The HDDM can also be used in a point to multipoint application, where the HDDM would decode the IP based Zixi protocol stream from a Zixi Broadcaster. The combination of Blonder Tongue’s encoding and decoding technology along with Zixi software, provides content-aware bandwidth optimization, error correction, and packet loss recovery over IP networks.
