1.2 Main ProView 7000™/7100 Applications
1.2.1 TS Descrambling Applications
The ProView 7000™/7100 is designed to economically meet the needs of digital turn around
operators. Using its on-board quad DVB common interfaces, the ProView 7000™/7100
descrambles and re-multiplexes selected services from up to four
2
transport streams
(ProView 7000 can descramble two TSs). The ProView 7000™/7100 enables operators to
create new SPTS or MPTS transport streams comprised of re-multiplexed services from the
original stream(s). Programs can be output over IP or ASI.
