The Continuum DVP™ Decoder is designed for Headend applications requiring the recovery of a program back to analog baseband format from a compressed digital format. The DVB-ASI input allows multi program transport streams to be connected to the decoder. The decoder offers the capability to select and decode one of the programs from the incoming DVB-ASI (MPEG-2) transport stream, and output baseband video, audio, cue tones, utility data and VBI.

Headend Consolidation
The Continuum DVP Decoder offers a cost- and space-efficient way to recover programs from an MPEG 2 transport stream at remote Hubs for the analog tier. Instead of receiving and decoding satellite delivered programs for the analog tier at each Hub, programs can be received at the Master Headend site and transported in MPEG-2 compressed format to the Hub locations.

Ad-insertion for the Analog Tier
The decoder offers DTMF cue tone and eight open collector cue trigger outputs for analog ad-insertion at the Hub locations.

DVB-ASI Output
An active DVB-ASI output offers the ability to filter out a specific program from the incoming transport stream, or pass the complete transport stream for daisy chaining multiple decoders together.
