Product Highlights:

 
  • Real-time Standard Definition AVC video encoder
  • Support for Main Profile up to Level 3
  • Variable Block Size Motion Compensation
  • Multiple inputs
    • Baseband video and audio
    • Analog RF input
    • ATSC 8VSB RF Input
  • Motion Compensated Noise Reduction

The Skitter standard definition encoder platform provides advanced encoding technology to deliver CBR or VBR video services at an exceptionally low bit rate. The compact 1U platform offers analog off air and ATSC digital terrestrial inputs. The receiver functions to enhance the headend architecture by reducing the box count and simplifying signal routing and redundancy support.

The Skitter Acclaim platform delivers flexibility and exceptional video quality with its advanced encoding system.

Key to the design of the Acclaim platform is the ability to continuously upgrade the encoding system as advances in audio and video compression become available.
