IP contribution networks, which are based on widely-adopted and cost effective open standards, provide a range of benefits that include the flexibility to easily and rapidly introduce and deploy revenue-generating services, redundancy, and error-protection mechanisms, as well as reduced operating expense opportunities. The new IP encoding platform includes the Cisco D9094 MPEG-4 advanced video coding (AVC) encoder, which was developed by Fujitsu to support high quality HD and SD video with lowest latency that can be transmitted at low speeds, while preserving excellent video quality. The Cisco D9094 encoder, and its SD counterpart, the D9093 encoder, both include an option for a built-in satellite modulator, ideally suited for DSNG (Digital Satellite News Gathering) apps. The IP system also includes the digital processing technology of the Cisco Digital Content Manager (DCM) for IP forward error-correction and the capability to deliver massive horsepower capable of simultaneously processing hundreds of HD video streams. This end-to-end IP solution includes Cisco ROSA technology and Dimetis Link Connector and Link Manager options for network and service management across the video contribution landscape. The system supports the use of satellite delivery using DVB-S or DVB-S2 modulation for news gathering and outside apps.

digiGO! — Fujitsu + Cisco's Low Latency IP Encoding Platform Delivers Sat HD + SD Video
Fujitsu and Cisco have collaborated on the creation of a highly efficient video contribution system for use over satellite or IP infrastructures.
Designed to help service providers maintain high levels of video quality at lower bandwidths, the system delivers low-latency performance for video transmission. Contribution nets provide flexible and efficient mechanisms of transporting video programming from source (i.e., a sports stadium) to a broadcast studio or headend. By applying IP efficiencies to processes that, traditionally, have relied upon legacy technologies, Fujitsu and Cisco are delivering the potential for significant cost and performance benefits for content producers and service providers.
