SatCasterII
Dual DVB-S/S2/S2X Demodulator
Dual Standalone DVB-S/S2/S2X Demodulator
The SatCasterII is a standalone dual satellite demodulator. It is fully compliant with DVB-S, DVB-S2 and DVB-S2X standards. It thus supports all of the advanced modes of the DVB-S2 standard, such as 16ASPK, up to 256APSK for providing higher thoughput.
The SatCasterII features multistream technology so that satellite operators can multiplex several TS in the same transponder; the SatCasterII allows for the selection of individual streams.
As an option, the SatCasterII can support BISS-1 descrambling to output clear-to-air services. It also provides 1+1 automatic redundancy between satellite inputs so that it can output TS or T2-MI streams (stemming from either satellite input1 or satellite input2).
