    Program:

    DiviCom provides standards-based MPEG-2 encoding products and systemsfor digital broadcasting and transmission over a variety of networks, includingsatellite, wireless, fiber, and cable. They've deployed over 5000 MPEGencoders worldwide that distribute audio, video, and data over a wide arrayof methods, including DTH (QPSK), MMDS, cable (QAM), ATSC (8VSB), DVB-T(CODFM), ATM, G.703, and others. We'll see how they help broadcastersand others cope with the transition to DTV.

    The MV-400 is DiviCom's newest encoder, designed to meet the requirementsof compressing HDTV (SMPTE 292M at 1.5Gbs) down to something thatstill fits within the ATSC (19.39Mbps over 8VSB) in just 1 rackunit.

    DiviCom has invested in an impressive Technology Suite that notonly shows the "DiviTrack" ability to share bandwidth (statistical multiplexing),but also allows for "proof of concept" and other testing evaluations ofMPEG systems. The gear demo alone will make your trip over to Milpitasworthwhile.
