M6100 Broadcast Satellite Modulator

The M6100 Broadcast Satellite Modulator is a new generation DVB compliant modulator specifically designed for broadcast applications. This MPEG Transport Stream modulator supports the updated DVB-S2 and DVB-S2X, next to the legacy DVB-S and DVB-DSNG standards in order to achieve barrier-breaking efficiency.

Features of the M6100 Broadcast Satellite Modulator

• Support of the latest and most efficient DVB-S2X standard
• Highest system reliability and service uptime through robust design and industry leading redundancy solutions including TS payload stuffing detection
• Low total cost of ownership as a result of very high bandwidth efficiency technology options, and ease of monitoring and control
• Built-in support for opportunistic data insertion, interoperable with IRDs that support Multi Protocol Encapsulation (MPE)
• Easy integration with industry leading management systems (EMS/NMS/OSS)
• Safe investment as the platform supports advanced capabilities such as proMPEG FEC at the input, built-in transport stream analyzer, ECM/EMM messages monitoring and DVB & NIT Carrier ID
• Optional C-band or Ku-band outputs for compact earth station design
• BISS scrambling for contribution links
• Pay-as-you-grow flexible licensing scheme
• Future-proof design combining video and IP unicast and multicast multiservice capabilities, supports transport of today´s and tomorrow´s services
• Dedicated GUI for single stream and multistream applications
• Feature-based pricing and software upgrades
• Provides better link margin with Equalink 3 pre-distortion

Delivering the Highest Uptime for Vital Links
Uptime and reliability are essential in the design of the modulator, which plays a vital role in the satellite network. Input source redundancy on ASI or on the GbE ports supporting any IP network configuration and the shortest redundancy switch-over times of modulators, operating both in 1+1 and N+1 topologies, are setting the standard in our industry. Advanced capabilities are built in, such as an MPEG Transport Stream analyser, support of SMPTE 2022 FEC at the GbE inputs (for distributed IP headends), and native support of Carrier ID, according to the new DVB standard, as well as in the transport stream NIT Table.
