Ericsson RX8315 - Manual

04-2012-v5
The Ericsson RX8315 distribution receiver provides capability to perfectly match the needs for video
distribution applications for turn-around of content into both analog and digital networks. The RX8315
uses the latest technology to let operators take full advantage of the efficiency improvements from
DVB-S2 modulation, PREKOR™ Dynamic Pre-correction System by Ericsson, and MPEG-4 AVC
compression to distribute three times the amount of content through a satellite transponder verses
traditional satellite distribution solutions.
The RX8315 provides compatibility with DVB Common Interface CA systems, offering both single
service and multi-service decryption capability. Decrypted transport streams can be handed off into
digital networks through a choice of ASI or IP output interfaces. The RX8315 can optionally decode any
MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 AVC 4:2:0 video standard, down-converting from HD to SD where necessary to
provide an SD composite video output for interfacing to analog networks or for low cost monitoring.
The RX8315 simplifies content acquisition for cable, satellite and telco operators in the all-digital
future of TV broadcasting.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Perfect Choice for a Large Network
The RX8315 is the perfect receive device for distribution of video
services throughout a large network. The RX8315 provides the most
up-to-date feature-set, combining maximum transmission efficiency
with easy remote management of the receiver population. The
RX8315 provides all major functionality and connectivity required to
hand-off the service into the remote network.
Increased Distribution Capacity and Efficiency
The RX8315 distribution receiver, in combination with Ericsson’s
MPEG-4 AVC encoders and PREKOR Dynamic Pre-correction, leads
to a highly efficient video distribution system. Combined with the
addition 30 percent increase in channel capacity of DVB-S2 the
RX8315 allows operators to achieve three times the amount of
content through a transponder.
Simplified Control and Lower Cost of Operations
Organizations with large populations of RX8315 receivers and other
Ericsson receivers can simplify control by integrating with Director by
Ericsson control system. Director provides remote, over-air, single-
view control from a central location, reducing the need for on-site local
operators.
