• The AQORD *LINK simultaneously encodes and decodes to achieve a full-duplex • Very low transmission costs compatible with the budgets of local broadcasters • 2Mbit guarantees a good live transmission in SD quality & 4-6Mbit in HD. • Stream to multiple IP adress for backup in multi-unicast, unicast or Multicast. • Easy set up of the AQORD *LINK encoder on-site through its LCD screen or remote access via a web interface • Recording possibility on the hardware and offline transmission • Global solution for transmitting audio and video I/O HD-SDI and audio in low latency • Com-IP automatic pointing system solution setting within fifteen minutes • Com-IP bandwidth scalability 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 Mbps, pay only for that you need Benefits offered by Digigram and Com-IP Opal’TV have chosen to use the hardware encoder Digigram AQORD *LINK two channels in order to achieve full duplex studio / field. The encoder AQORD *LINK perfectly matches the budget of local broadcasters and is known for its excellent video quality at low bitrates. The reliability and robustness of the solution Com-IP can ensure 2Mbit 4Mbit SD or HD for live performances. The AQORD *LINK has been packaged in a flycase Com-IP VSAT including an IP modem and a parabolic dish with automatic pointing capability. The Digigram solution provides two broadcast quality SD/HD streaming channels from 0.5 to 20 Mbps MPEG-TS encapsulation. In the transmission tests conducted by Opal’TV, the global solution’s latency observed was less than three seconds. Solution offered to Opal’TV with Digigram hardware encoder AQORD *LINK and Com-IP’s modem • Propose a more stable alternative to 3G links (not reliable enough) • Find a cheaper solution than traditional satellite links • Obtain a mobile solution • Get the best compromise between good image quality and low bitrate Opal’TV challenges The project of the local broadcaster Opal’TV is to find a cost effective solution to address full live duplex applications. Opal’TV requirements For local broadcasters, the benefits of this solution are the high reliability and quality of live transmission, enhanced by the low latency of the Digigram unit, as well as the UDP compatibility, the speed and simplicity with which the entire solution can be deployed,” said Laurent Galet, technical manager at Opal’TV. “We tested and compared this integrated technology against current 3G mobile solutions and found it to be the best solution for our broadcast clients. http://video.digigram.com Digigram and Com-IP provide a full duplex and cost effective solution for the local TV broadcaster Opal’TV IP VIDEO - CASE STUDY
