Adtec Presents Forward-Thinking DTV, IPTV & Ad Insertion Solutions at NCTA 2005

NASHVILLE, TN - Adtec Digital introduces its latest line of digital television, IPTV and Ad Insertion products at NCTA, April 3-5 in San Francisco , booth 706

“Adtec is designing new, advanced compression standards-based products and is continuing to mature our MPEG 2-based products to deliver more features, while retaining our hard-earned reputation of value and reliability,” President, Kevin Ancelin , said.  “Adtec is able to rapidly deploy a host of new system-level solutions because our vision embodies a forward-thinking product design.  Our products are based on a lean, very efficient operating system, conceived and implemented with MPEG and networking at its core.  This guarantees a stable, repeatable and forward moving path.”

Adtec’s digital television solutions offer full integration to satellite and terrestrial signals into DVB-ASI and IP services for direct-to-home (DTH) or enterprise delivery of multiple channels for IPTV applications. 

“Adtec’s new line of Digital Turn Around Media Routers, including the DTA-3050, DTA-3150 and DTA-3250, attribute to the ultimate DTV solution,” Sales Engineer, Michael Bush, said.  “All are equipped with Gigabit Ethernet and optional conditional access, and are ideal for aggregating MPEG 2 transport streams and IP data services for delivery to an unlimited number of viewers equipped with low-cost traditional or Ethernet-based IP set tops.”

Adtec’s DTV solutions support AES and DVB-CSA, conditional access (CA) and Adtec’s new EPG server, an electronic program guide that serves as a middleware management solution and is an integral part for any Ethernet-based IP headend.

“The EPG Server facilitates interactive program guides or web pages for delivery along with programming through a multicast enabled switch network,” Bush said.  “The EPG Server is the marriage of our DTV and IPTV products and our Ad Insertion products to create a truly innovative, unique, value-added solution.”

Adtec’s commercial insertion solutions feature scalable architecture and seamless integration with other systems, along with ease of distribution of media and management data across wide area, satellite, removable media and PTSN networks.  Supported platforms include digital into analog (DIA), digital into digital (DID) and digital into transport (DIT).

Adtec will also display its Duet commercial inserter, DPI-1200 Ad-Splicer, and Traffic & Billing Gateway Server (TBGS). 

Adtec’s single-rack unit DPI-1200 Ad Splicing Server is ideally suited to serve the multi-channel cable market by interfacing with Terayon’s CherryPicker DM 3200 Ad Splicer.

Adtec will also show its Traffic and Billing Gateway Server (TBGS) at NCTA.

 “The TBGS allows seamless integration with a variety of popular analog and digital ad insertion systems,” Pierce said.  “The real value of the TBGS is its ability to unite with the DPI-1200 Ad Splicing Server into any system, facilitating deployment of DIT.”

Adtec Digital designs and manufactures innovative technology for digital television delivery, IP streaming, commercial insertion, and multimedia digital video applications. Adtec Digital products offer rock solid engineering, powerful features, scalability and the ability to generate unmatched bottom line revenue.
