Contemporary Research to Debut New Modulator/IPTV Encoders at InfoComm

QMOD3-StackNEW-2-0614Contemporary Research’s new QMOD-SDI 2, QMOD-HDMI 2 and QMOD-YPB2 HD Modulator/IPTV Encoders will officially debut at InfoComm. Integrated scaling can accept 1080p and 3G SDI, 59.94/60 Hz video as well as international 50 and 25 Hz formats. An optional upgrade key adds the ability to cross-convert resolutions, such as scaling all input formats to 720p or 1080i.

The QMOD-SDI 2 HD Modulator-IPTV Encoder converts inputs from two SDI sources for distribution as HD in-house cable channels. Supports up to 3G 1080p, embedded AC-3 audio, 708/608 captions, and dual language audio tracks. Audio can be inserted from analog and SPDIF inputs, as well as Line 21 captioning data.

The QMOD-HDMI 2 HD Modulator-IPTV Encoder converts two HDMI (non-HDCP) sources into HD in-house cable channels. Perfect for DirecTV receivers, the unit outputs two sub-channels with AC-3 audio and Line 21 captioning, audio from HDMI, SPDIF and analog stereo inputs.

The QMOD-YPB2 HD Modulator-IPTV Encoder converts inputs from two Component sources into HD in-house cable channels. Perfect for integration with satellite/cable boxes, the unit outputs two sub-channels with AC-3 audio and Line 21 captioning, audio from SPDIF and analog stereo inputs.

For all three encoders, setup and monitoring are done via Ethernet, and the encoders can also output an IP video stream.

The specs on all three are here.
