2.Introduction
The UC-16MX is a DVB Standard Transport Stream Multiplexer supports real-time video
stream multiplexing and re-multiplexing.The UC-16MX can handle 16 inport ASI SPTS or
MPTS and send the out through 1 or two MPTS streams.
It is compatible with the ISO/IEC-13818 standard with DVB ASI output interface.
2.1 Working principle
[Principle figure]
#
Figure2-1
[Working principle explanation]
(1) The multiplexer supports 16 MPEG-2 SPTS or MPTS inputs and two MPEG-2 transport
stream (MPTS) outputs. It filters out the empty packetsor the unneeded packets, and
changesthe PID (packet identity).
(2) Obtainsthe PSI (Program Specific Information) and SI (Service Information) and
integratesthem with local data.
(3) The UC-16MX can connect with a network management software through TCP/IP
protocol.
