Ericsson EN8040 MPEG-2 SD MPEG-4 HD encoder with L-Band modulator EN8040/BAS/LBAND














- Stock: 1
- Code: BS18359
- Model: EN8040
The new EN8040 is Ericsson’s second-generation AVC
multi-format DSNG. It is the most flexible and integrated news gathering product on the market,
reflecting Ericsson’s technology leadership and unique ability to create products of the very highest class. Unmatched
in so many areas, the EN8040 excels whether you are considering its features,
performance or the multiple upgrade paths that we offer for upgrading existing
equipment to this exemplary standard.
The EN8040 is multi-standard and multi-format. Its hardware
has the ability to support a variety of advanced encoding schemes as well as
DVB-S2 modulation. This combination allows considerable bandwidth savings that
can equate to transmitting high-quality HD within transponder bandwidths
typically used for SD today. The benefits extend to far more than simply
minimizing the transponder costs for HD, and includes the prevention of
expensive upgrades to the truck’s transmission infrastructure, the ability to
use compact, power-limited fly-away antennas robustly for SD or HD, and even
the ability to also use the EN8040 for terrestrial microwave (DENG)
applications, where SD standards of radio-link range and robustness can be
achieved with HD.
Since the EN8040 has been designed to bring the benefits of
H.264-AVC encoding to professional contribution and distribution applications,
particular attention has been paid to provide the best quality at low
end-to-end latency. These low delay features and complimented by equivalent
functionality for the RX1290 decoder.
