DVE5100 HD&SD IP Capable Exciter

The DVE5100 is a High and Standard Definition MPEG2 / H.264 MPEG4 pt10 Encoder with the option of an integrated L-Band Modulator. In addition the DVE5100 can encapsulate up to two independent ASI streams(which can be the internally encoded ASI, an external ASI de-capsulated from an incoming IP stream) into IP output stream. This enables route diversity for the ASI signal via internet of over RF.

The DVE5100 also includes integrated redundant HPA control (via FSK over L Band or separate control cable), supporting a wide range of TWTAs / SSPAs. The DVE5100 is fully software upgradeable for a variety of options and is one quarter of the size and a fraction of the weight of similar products. Thanks to its ½ rack width unit size, two 5000 series units can be accommodated in a single 19" x 1 RU rackspace.
