An Ultra-Low Power Device that Migrates Legacy ASI Video Service Outputs to the IP Backbone
The Motorola AGB240 delivers highly reliable ASI to Gigabit Ethernet bridging for legacy video services. It is intended to bridge traffic from ASI-output IRDs, Encoders, video routers, and other video sources to a common Gigabit Ethernet IP backbone or transport network.
ASI inputs typically carry either pure TS payload, or TS with null stuffing. For example, if the AGB240 has inputs of 54Mbps streams with null stuffing, it can be configured to operate in two modes. In null-stripping mode, up to twenty-four (24) such inputs with TS payload of no more than 38.8Mbps can be bridged, the AGB240 will strip nulls and recalculate the PCR for each stream, and output all TS on the GbE interface. In pass through mode, up it could accept seventeen (17) 54Mbps streams with a combined output of 918Mbps on the GbE interface.
