With web based control

POLYTRON’s switch matrix ESM 1716 flexibly supplies SAT IF and terrestrial signals to signal processing and distribution systems, monitoring and recording systems as well as test stations.
The web based control of the switch matrix allows easy and quick adaption of the output signal to changed requirements. The input distribution of the switch matrix remains unchanged.
The switching matrix features 16 satellite inputs and a terrestrial input. The selected polarization levels are available at 16 outputs.

Range of application

E.G. as input distribution panel for headend systems:

• Quick reaction to changed transponder frequencies.
• Easy customization of the program offer (e.g. foreign language programs in hotels).
• Easy activation of smart cards, whose activation data are on a different transponder.

There are many ways to receive television and radio programmes via a shared distribution system - each of them with specific advantages and disadvantages. Headend technology with channel processing is a very cost-effective alternative, especially for apartment blocks, office buildings, hotels, guest houses, hospitals, retirement homes, etc. with their small to medium-sized distribution systems.

Thanks to careful construction and the use of high-quality components, POLYTRON headends are extremely durable and fail-safe. The design, optimised for low consumption, also results in low energy consumption and therefore lower electricity costs, which further increases the cost-effectiveness of the investment in view of many years of continuous operation.

DVB-S/S2, DVB-T/T2 and DVB-C signals into IP streams.

The integrated CI slots allow the central decryption of the received contents. The multiplexing function allows to create new output signals with content from different input channels.
