“Until now, private cable operators serving hotels, hospitals, corporate centers, MDUs and other high-channel and [high-] screen-count environments were unable to deploy HD primarily because of the cost and complexity,” says Rob Narzisi, sales manager at Advanced Media Technologies, a master distributor of ZeeVee products. “The HDbridge line changes all of that, delivering affordability [and] ease of deployment while allowing for the use of standard, off-the-shelf HDTVs"
The HDbridge line is based on a modular architecture. The rack chassis can contain up to eight modules, each of which creates an HD cable channel. These channels are combined and amplified in the chassis, providing a single point of connection for the installer as well as a single AC connection. Each module accepts an HD component video input, digital audio - optical and coax, and a closed-caption input. It is designed to connect directly to satellite and cable receivers and requires no complex configuration. The broadcast channel can be set via a simple front-button interface or remotely managed via a Web interface.
Modules come in three different maximum resolutions – 1080, 720 and 480 – allowing the selection of appropriate price/performance. The lowest resolution allows broadcast of premium content in full-digital DVD quality while still respecting the rebroadcast requirements of content owners. It can be field-upgraded to 720p resolution via a simple-to-execute firmware update for a modest fee.
The entire HDbridge line is available immediately from ZeeVee’s distribution partners.
