MD8200 from Media Links
High Density Video Network Adapter with Data Transport

The MD8200 supports up to 16 DVB-ASI interfaces, configurable for send or receive operation through an SNMP compliant, web accessible GUI interface. It features standards based transport stream encapsulation with FEC per the SMPTE 2022-1/2022-2 (Pro MPEG CoP3) and DVB-ASI granularity provisioned at 1 Mb increments from 3Mb up to 200Mb.
Designed with 6 Gigabit Ethernet user interfaces, the MD8200 is able to dynamically manage data traffic at a lower priority than the video traffic, meanwhile port based VLAN tagging allows the video traffic to be prioritised to prevent loss in the event of congestion.
Multiple unicasts of the same stream can be initiated, provided the bandwidth of the NIC port is not exceeded, with IGMP support for multiple destination transmission.
The MD8200 allows convergence between SONET/SDH and IP based networks with the use of the ITU-T G.7041 Generic Framing Protocol.
