S-MUX is a multiplexer software which combines data streams from several Subtitle Transmission Units, STUs, into one ASI output or IP Multicast. For multichannel STU installations with ASI interfaces, S-MUX lowers the ASI hardware cost.
S-Mux – Subtitle Multiplexer Software
S-MUX simplifies the failover function controlled from the Subtitle Transmission Controller, STC, by eliminating the ASI routing. All communication between STC, STU and S-MUX is TCP/IP.
ASI multiplexer for subtitle streams and IP Multicast.
- Substantial cost savings for multichannel systems where ASI interfaces are required
- Lowers costs for automatic fail over functionality for STUs
- Built-in “choke” for optimisation of use of bandwidth, lowering the lowest possible bandwidth
- STU connection using TCP/IP to transmit DVB subtitling
- Separate PCR clock distribution to all STUs
- Interfaces to all video encoder/multiplexers with ASI input and IP multicast.
