Grooming, Transrating and Multiplexing
Using proprietary Video Intelligence Architecture™ (VIA), the BNP provides the ability to transrate
program streams with the highest quality is unsurpassed in the industry. The BNP seamlessly grooms
multi-program transport streams (MPTS / MUX) and single-program transport streams (SPTS) on both
input and output ports. It also offers multiple Quality of Service (QoS) priority levels on any MPEG-2
program stream enabling selection of the desired level of transrating.
DPI-Based Ad Splicing
The BNP can concurrently groom and seamlessly splice both SD and HD program streams encoded in
either MPEG-2 or H.264 formats. This grooming and splicing capability eliminates the need to dedicate
multiple devices for different functions. The simplified installation, wiring and configuration reduces
system deployment time. The BNP is fully compliant with SCTE 30 and SCTE 35 standards and is
interoperable with the leading digital program insertion (DPI) ad servers. This flexible product can also
perform SCTE 30 to SCTE 35 conversion to support digital ad insertion at the hub. The BNP is an ideal
solution for both centrally located DPI systems at the headend facility, distributed DPI systems, and
zoned and targeted ad insertion.
