Imagine ACO6800+ASID INTELLIGENT SINGLE SWITCHOVER FOR ASI...
Imagine ACO6800+ASID INTELLIGENT SINGLE SWITCHOVER FOR ASI SOURCES; Intelligent Single Switchover for ASI sources, provides etr290 priority 1 & 2 alarms and monitoring, PID, bit rate information
Intelligent single switchover for ASI sourcesThe ACO6800+ switchover module is designed for the 6800+ core processing platform and provides both the primary and backup paths critical to maintaining uninterrupted video and audio signal flow.
Multiple versions of the ACO6800+ are offered to suit the varied redundancy needs of broadcast and production facilities, OB trucks, satellite operators, cable headends, and mobile TV and IPTV operations.
The ACO6800+ is available as a single- or dual-channel module that provides switchover capabilities from the primary to the backup path in the event of a signal failure. In addition to the basic switchover module, the ACO6800+ is also available as an intelligent Q-SEE-compliant module that monitors video, audio and metadata at ingest, checks levels for consistency and scans for errors.
ACO6800+ASID switches the signal between redundant signals at the point of ingest into a satellite DTH, mobile TV, or IPTV facility as well as switches the signal on redundant paths within a facility.
Features
- Input bypass relay to ensure signal path in the event of power failure or missing front module
- Three GPI inputs and three GPI outputs for each ACO
- Support for SD-SDI at 270 Mb/s, HD-SDI at 1.5 Gb/s, or ASI at 270 Mb/s.
- Switch-over when user-defined alarm criteria are triggered
- Switch-back to primary signal input when the signal has been restored as per the user-defined time span
- Single ACO
- Six BNC ports (two inputs and four outputs)
- Monitor input 1 (primary) for loss of signal or selected ETR-290 alarms and switch-over to Input 2 (secondary) with independent alarm setting from input 1
- Switch-back to primary signal input when the signal has been restored as per the user-defined time span
- Independent Q-SEE alarm sets for both inputs
Details
The Intelligent ASI ACO6800+ASID module monitors ASI transport stream inputs for ETR 290 Priority One and Priority Two alarms. Each alarm has user settings for threshold, switch-back time and alarm detection levels.
These intelligent ACO modules allow for the setting of customizable parameters for each level being monitored and perform an automatic switchover when any level changes or disruptions are detected.
