Featured Products
MDM6100 Broadcast Satellite Modem
The MDM6100 Broadcast Satellite Modem is a next-generation, DVB-compliant modem designed specifically for broadcast applications. It supports DVB-S2 and DVB-S2X standards alongside legacy DVB-S and DVB-DSNG, delivering breakthrough efficiency. The unit functions as an MPEG transport stream modulator, demodulator, or modem.
As a modulator, it is ideal for direct-to-home broadcasting, primary distribution to head-ends, and television or radio content contribution. When used as a modem or demodulator, it is typically installed at head-ends or on both ends of a contribution link.
MCX7000 Multi-Carrier Satellite Gateway
The MCX7000 Multi-Carrier Satellite Gateway combines high-density performance with exceptional satellite link efficiency, delivering significant OPEX and CAPEX savings across various applications. Its high density and DVB-S2X support make it ideal for distribution networks to towers and head-ends. The gateway is also well-suited for broadcast contribution applications on both standard and HTS spot-beam transponders, as well as dense DTH uplink stations. In closed video distribution networks, AES encryption of baseband frames provides enhanced security at the physical layer level.
MCX8000 multi-carrier satellite gateway
The MCX8000 Multi-Carrier Satellite Gateway is a high-density, fully redundant, slot-based modular system designed for Direct-To-Home (DTH) broadcasting, primary distribution to head-ends, and OTT delivery of video and audio content. Its slot-based architecture offers a versatile 3-in-1 solution that minimizes downtime and simplifies operational support costs. The system features two hot-swappable modem modules that can be added or removed without tools or disrupting the other slot’s operation, along with hot-swappable power supply units and an integrated 1+1 redundancy switch for maximum reliability.
