The XC Platform is the modular head-end platform for IPTV and broadcast, supporting content acquisition, compression, stream processing including scrambling and multiplexing, with distribution options for cable, satellite and terrestrial networks.
The XC Platform is built on modules, where customers can pick and choose the modules they need to meet their individual requirements. The wide range of modules provides all functionality required in a broadcast distribution head-end and can be customized according to market segments. Modules are available for switching, input for content aggregation, compression, processing, output and decoding, and can all be freely combined. Customers can even deliver and convert both analogue and digital broadcast services, from point to point, or from point to multipoint, in any format and to any screen.
The XC Platform is carrier grade, meaning it can handle intensive processing requirements with built-in automatic routing of signals between modules. Power supplies and modules are hot-swappable, while enhanced redundancy options give unparalleled reliability.
A user-friendly interface allows intuitive and comprehensive management of the entire system. This, plus easy integration into third-party management systems, simplifies deployment and maintenance and means users need little specialist training on the platform.
