MediaGateway

The Minerva MediaGateway bridges the gap between digital television (DTV) broadcast and IP networks by demultiplexing DVB-ASI streams from satellite or terrestrial sources and reformatting them into MPEG transport streams.

Many broadcast channels are in encrypted MPEG-2 DVB format when downloaded from satellites. The DVB stream is first fed into a professional Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD), which outputs DVB ASI to the Minerva MediaGateway. The MediaGateway user interface automatically displays the DVB stream system information enabling an operator to select which channels should be transformed into MPEG transport streams and mapped to specific IP multicast or unicast addresses.

The Minerva MediaGateway features the latest in embedded systems technology, is a true plug-and play video appliance, and includes an integrated HTTP server for remote configuration and management. The MediaGateway also supports SNMP control.
