Compact DVB-S/S2 to DVB-C Headend: Terra S2C16

Support

Details

The compact digital headend Terra S2C16 S2C16 R81620 is a 16-channel transmodulator with DVB-S/S2 (8PSK/QPSK) input and DVB-C (QAM) output. The device is designed for transmodulation of FTA channels.
Each of the 16 transmodulators of the S2C16 R81620 headend receives signals from a whole satellite transponder (several to over ten TV channels) and forms the corresponding DVB-C multiplex. In total, the headend can distribute 16 DVB-C multiplexes that can be received by televisions equipped with DVB-C tuners or connected via DVB-C STBs. The TV channels received from a transponder can be freely filtered - the only requirement is not to exceed the maximum output bit rate.
The headends can be connected in cascade, in order to receive and distribute a greater number of programming packages. The application of the headend(s) can be the optimal solution for distribution of TV programming in boarding houses, hotels, hospitals and other facilities where the use of separate satellite receivers connected to televisions would be too expensive and troublesome.
Additionally, the RF input can be used for combining DVB-T channels (COFDM).
