Front picture of the D2Flex 3000

The D2Flex 3000 is a broadcast quality full duplex IP/ASI video gateway that can send or receive multiple services over IP with any ASI or network source. Transmission of high quality video with low latency across the public internet is supported with the Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) protocol.  

Broadcasters and video professionals can optionally insert emergency alerts (EAS) or add a dynamic PSIP electronic program guide (EPG) with local channel branding into a reliable MPEG transport stream. The D2Flex 3000 is an essential building block of any distributed transmission system where value, security and reliability are needed.

Applications

  • Public Internet Transmission: Leverage the power of a Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) to deliver broadcast quality video with low latency across the public internet.
  • Regionalization: Regionalize at head-ends and transmitter sites with advanced channel branding and dynamic PSIP insertion.

Key Benefits

Easily Rebrand Channels with EPG:  Set the major and minor channel numbers on each output stream and pass through or regenerate the necessary PSIP tables. The optional D2Guide can insert an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) from services like Titan TV and Gracenote (TMS) or from a spreadsheet with programming for the next several weeks so your customers can find the programs they want.

Secure and Reliable IP Transmission: The D2Flex features the standard Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) that provides end to end security and optimized streaming performance across unpredictable networks for the best quality video possible. The integrity and quality of the video is maintained by accounting for packet loss, latency, jitter and dynamically adjusting for bandwidth between each endpoint. Now you can reliably deliver low latency video over any network including the public internet.
