eYe Grabber™ 8VSB Small, portable, frequency agile, 8VSB Modulator with USB or ASI input for the real time output of Live or Stored MPEG-2 or H.264 streams (SPTS or MPTS) coming via ASI or local hard drive to coax RF CCTV systems with many modern plasma and LCD televisions equipped with built-in 8VSB tuners. Inexpensive and easy to use device for use in commercial establishments where a video based message is available from a satellite feed directly to the BNC RF in connector or from the local hard drive and sent to the modulator via USB. Includes comprehensive transport stream playout application with scheduling. Features Overview Supports captured file play, live from external source through ASI input RF modulators convert video to RF (radio frequency) so the Input: DVB-ASI, USB, or SMPTE 310M video can be transmitted to a television via its RF input. 8VSB ` is the modulation standard for American over the air broadcast. Output: 8VSB or DVB-ASI It is the RF modulation format used to deliver MPEG-2 encoded When ASI is input the TS can be any rate since it is content to television sets in North America. upconverted and remuxed to ATSC rate When DVB is input the bit rate can be anything above 2 The eYe Grabber 8VSB is a software definable, frequency agile Mbps or below 19.3 Mbps modulator that sends live or recorded video streams to multiple Includes ASI port for simultaneous ASI and RF output if HD monitors via inexpensive RF over coaxial cable. With its TS is pulled from hard drive included software, one can create a powerful signage or test server. Frequency agile On board Channel 2~69 selectable RF output up-converter The eYe Grabber 8VSB is ideal for closed circuit video systems. Programmable RF output level (0.1 dB step) For example, a company exhibiting at a trade show can pull video from a computer hard drive, connect the eYe Grabber Can superposition white noise over modulated signal and control the output C/N ratio 8VSB to the computer via the USB port, and transmit video simultaneously to lots of HD monitors within the exhibit via RF Feeds either an antenna or coax cable cabling. Or, retailers can install one unit each at each store, send Field upgradeable – can be reprogrammed to add other regularly updated video from a satellite feed, and have it play profiles or new firmware out on multiple HD monitors at each location. It’s also ideal for Playout Scheduler – schedule tasks (5 maximum) to run generating RF signals for field testing and laboratory daily, weekly or monthly at a certain time applications. Ships with Java®-based application GUI The input can be USB, DVB-ASI, or SMPTE 310M, single or Linux® and Windows® SDK’s available for customization multi program transport streams. One 8VSB channel can have Customer oriented API is also available two HD streams. Sample transport streams available Customers can purchase licenses for additional modulation 0dBm amplifier included profiles and upgrade the unit immediately. The eYe Grabber Option for Multi Function product that accepts other 8VSB accepts and plays out MPEG-2 or H.264 streams (SPTS modulations including QAM, ATSC 3.0, DVB-S/S2, or MPTS) from DVB-ASI, or plays transport streams from a DVB-T, DVB-T2, DVB-C2, CMMB, ISDB-T, ISDB-S, etc. local flash-based USB “stick”.
