CABLE TV

We are known for designing and setting up complete HITS (Headend-in-the-sky) systems. We deal with all types of cable TV equipment. Our in-house R&D lab is engaged in finding solutions for the challenges faced by the Cable TV industry.

Hence to increase revenue, a lot of innovative thinking is required to handle the current market competition.
Digitization of Cable TV has increased more number of TV channels on the end-users set-top-boxes. As an LCO it is the right time to start your local cable-TV entertainment & news channels.

We have been working over the years to address the challenges faced by the MSO, LCO in the cableTV industry. A few of them are listed below
a) Provide a good viewing experience to end-user. To do so all TV channels are to be monitored 24x7
b) Fulfill the compliance recording needs as directed by the regulatory bodies. i.e. record of TV channels 24x7
c) Cable lines do get cut due to tree branches breaking overhead wires or notorious elements cutting them off.
d) Sometimes there is an issue with the overhead cable running on poles. The government or private parties charge for using these poles
e) The control rooms are very small and hence there are always space constraints for adding additional pieces of equipment. In such cases, Mini digital headend are needed
f) For a cable TV operator, advertisement insertion is the main source of revenue. Advt insert pieces of equipment need to be compatible with LCO MSO systems.
g) Simple playout and graphics systems with logo and ticker insertions and so on.

Mr. Gupta, who has followed the digitization journey, says, "Your competitor can cut your wire but cannot cut your signal. To do so, the other party will have to invest heavily to block your transmission signal. Wireless IPTV will have a lot of potentials and will catch the industry with a storm."

He also said, "It's time to think for revenue model beyond charging for advertisement. Local content has the power to counter national content. Viewers like to be connected with their local value systems of life."

The revenue generation of Cable TV providers at the LCO's is limited by
a) The number of channels that they can insert
b) The advertisement slots available to them
c) Their ability to charge for their content
d) The Total number of TV Channels is a combination of FTA (Free To Air) as well as paid channels that can be provided to the viewers.

We are just a phone call away to address all the pros & cons of the equipment you need to buy!
We are listing down types of equipment used by the industry.

Digital Headend

We are suplier of range of professional Digital Headend as well as mini Digital Headend which allows you to take in Tv signals from a range of sources and distribute them around a system in DVB-C format compatible with modern receivers.

Various video sources like local studios, DBS satellites TV, local video players are amplified and re-modulated onto TV channels for transmission down the CATV system.

Edge QAM

QAM stands for quadrature amplitude modulation, the format by which digital cable channels are encoded and transmitted via cable television providers. QAM is used in a variety of communications systems such as Dial-up modems and Wi Fi. In cable systems, a QAM tuner is linked to the cable in a manner that is equivalent to an ATSC tuner which is required to receive over-the-air (OTA) digital channels broadcast by local television stations when attached to an antenna. Most new HDTV digital televisions support both of these standards.

Most of the time QAM 64/126/256 are already in-built either IRD or modulators. Say if you want to signal in DVB-C, the more the number of QAM's more the number of channels can send distributed in a frequency.

Example if QAM 64 bit generally has a capability to tramit data of around 37 mbps (Max) i.e around 16 SD channels. Also the modulator plays an important role in deciding number of QAMs that it can accept. QAM is the heart of the headend. Hence we advice to choose wisely.
