US Cable Operator Reaffirms Relationship With Scopus Video Networks

A US multi system cable operator has reaffirmed its existing relationship with Scopus Video Networks, a provider of digital video networking solutions, as it expands to
offer hundreds of channels into a new geographic region using Scopus' fully integrated digital simulcast IP network solution.
"Repeat orders such as this, confirm the MSO's continuing confidence and trust in our products and service to bring digital simulcast to their widening audience," said Carlo Basile, President of American operations, Scopus Video Networks.
"Our customers acknowledge the high quality and reliability of our system solutions, and we value the long-standing relationships we are building with them."
Scopus was chosen to provide a fully integrated system incorporating all video processing components of a digital simulcast system, including remotely monitoring and managing all the components from one User Interface. The deployment includes Scopus UE-9000 real-time encoders, IVG-7000 Intelligent Video Gateway (IVG) platforms, UID-2900 Dense Edge Decoders, and NMS management software at the headends.
Scopus' UE-9000 real-time encoders digitize television feeds prior to transport over an IP network to multiple headends and Scopus' IVG-7500 for Digital Program Insertion (DPI) enable insertion of local television advertisements in the digital domain. At each headend, Scopus IVG-7000s aggregate feeds and provide advanced processing capabilities such as joint transrating, grooming, and rate shaping for better channel use and bandwidth
efficiency.
Scopus' UID-2900s IP dense edge decoders decode the digital feeds, enabling broadcast to digital and analog subscribers simultaneously over a single IP video distribution network.
The entire system is managed and monitored by Scopus' Network Management System (NMS), enabling encoder-to-edge, full system control and monitoring.
The NMS monitor and manage all components from one GUI and to perform those functions remotely.
Scopus Intelligent Video Networking solutions provide next-generation, end-to-end IP-based technology for video delivery and processing, for satellite, Telco, and content providers as well as for cable operators. Scopus advanced solutions feature comprehensive management of digital video receiving, encoding, processing, transmission and transport.
