The PDXT8 is an advanced IP transcoding system designed for use in digital headends. The unit is ideal for conversion of MPEG-4/H.264 program for MPEG-2 systems, or for conversion of MPEG-2 inputs to MPEG-4 for bandwidth savings. Audio transcoding includes AAC, MP2 and AC-3 – any to any. HD to SD downconversion is also supported. The unit supports 4 HD… […]
Broadband Communities – Cable MSOs will look to fund new network expansions through a combination of existing capital and a spate of recent federal broadband funding programs. The late-2021 passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law provided substantial fuel for MSOs to close the digital divide, using public funding such as the $42.45 billion Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program… […]
**DISCONTINUED** ATX offers 1RU redundant amplifiers, switches and power supplies. QPAIR The QPAIR redundant amplifier system offers 2 amplifiers, 2 power supplies and 1 RF sensing redundancy switch. It monitors amplifiers and power supplies, has an LED indicator and form C alarm contacts, 100-240 VAC or -48 VAC power (40-60 VDC), and a hot-swappable amplifier…. […]
…BCE. Scientists and archeologists speculate that these early energy storage devices were used for both industrial (electroplating) and therapeutic (an early form of shock therapy?) purposes. Clearly, Nebuchadnezzar didn’t commission these batteries to provide backup power for a yet-to-be-unearthed Iron Age communications network. But it should not be overlooked that these ancient devices were constructed of the same components that… […]
By Joe McGarvey, Marketing Director | Question: What do Play-Doh®, the Slinky®, Viagra® and, quite possibly, hybrid supercapacitor energy storage modules have in common? Answer: All are products that eventually became better known for uses other than their original purpose. Slinky and Play-Doh, two of the most commercially successful toys ever invented, have unremarkable origin stories. The former was developed… […]
…reach these far-flung communities with innovative services more cost-effectively than in the past. That’s where ATX, a provider of long-reach digital optical solutions offering industry-leading dispersion compensation capabilities, comes in. Look for more news in the coming weeks about how ATX is helping MSOs of all sizes realize their rural expansion ambitions by providing the foundation for advanced and profitable… […]
…attribute of DOCSIS 4.0 is that it will eventually require MSOs to upgrade nearly all the actives and passives in their outside plants. That sort of node-to-tap renovation project, though large in scope, provides MSOs with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to completely revitalize their networks, as well as the broadband services they deliver. Done the right way the next phase of… […]
…The company has curtailed the use of eco-unfriendly bubble wrap, for example, in favor of shipping materials that are 100% recyclable. That’s just one of the ways ATX is honoring the spirit of Earth Day every day. ATX’s mission is to help our customers bring affordable broadband and ubiquitous content to the masses. To be true to that purpose, it’s… […]
…Charter Communications, for example, was one of the big winners in the first round of RDOF bidding. One complication is that the bulk of this new broadband spending is to be concentrated around fiber and next-generation wireless buildouts. A potential implication of an accelerated rollout of super high-speed broadband is that 1Gbps or faster symmetrical services become the baseline for… […]
A critical component of the ATX 204MHz Digital Return System, the GigaXtend™ 204MHz Digital Return Transmitter Module is located within the Cisco® GS7000 Node and uses standard 10Gbps Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP+) transceivers for enhanced flexibility. The transmitter module converts each signal to a baseband digital data stream and combines the signals into a serial data stream using time-division… […]
