TV>IP™ - Flexible Multimedia Platform Solution
TV>IP™ is a unique multimedia platform and flexible TV headend solution to stream any source media with the latest encoding technology (H.264, H.265). The media content is delivered over computer networks based on multicast traffic enabling unlimited access to all streams. The e.sigma software converts all source content from satellite/cable/terrestrial formats as well as graphical outputs and IP content into single multicast streams through a server application. The approach is easily scalable by adding additional TV>IP™ servers providing an unlimited number of content channels to any network connection. The slim server hardware (1HE) has a flexible configuration choosing from the number of tuners and CAM/CI modules to serve any system requirements.
