ASIA-PACIFIC BROADCASTING

Haivision Network Video has released the Torpedo 2, the latest generation of the company’s DVB-to-IP gateways. Now supporting the latest SD and HD digital video broadcast (DVB) standards, the new Torpedo gateway delivers DVB signals from a satellite or terrestrial antenna-over-IP video networks without the need to re-encode the content.

The Torpedo takes free-to-air or encrypted digital satellite signals from a satellite or terrestrial antenna and makes these signals directly available over local area networks. Supporting DVB conditional access to enable decryption of pay-TV services, the Torpedo can be paired with Haivision’s Furnace end-to-end IP video system to take advantage of the Furnace’s military-grade AES encryption and conditional access features. This makes it possible to deliver media to desktop players and set-top boxes anywhere, without sacrificing control or content protection.

Besides meeting DVB-S and DVB-S2 standards for SD and HD satellite transmissions, the new Torpedo also adds support for DVB-T2 for terrestrial HD broadcasts in addition to DVB-T for SD.

Peter Maag, executive vice-president of Haivision, said: “Haivision is simplifying the challenge of media distribution for our integrators and clients by providing end-to-end solutions. We pair innovations that get media onto networks, with integrated transcoding and streaming solutions to deliver video securely to every user and every device.”
