SPECIALREPORT

COVERAGE YOU CAN DEPEND ON

Even after four days and miles of walking, it's impossible to see everythingon the NAB exhibit floor. There isn't enough time - or shoe leather - tosee it all.

Readers tell us that their top reason to attend NAB is to research productsfor possible purchase. But as the show grows ever larger, it becomes evenmore difficult to find what you're looking for. And, if you can't attend theexhibition, it's even harder to discover the new ideas and solutions thatwere introduced at the show.

To help you unearth the technology gems that lie in that 3.2 -million sq-ftexhibit hall, Broadcast Engineering brings our team of more than a dozeneditors and consultants to cover the event. Combined, these experts travelto all the booths and see all the products, so you don't have to.

We then pool our knowledge in this special Broadcast Engineering productguide. It's full of new products and services you may have missed or simplyneed more information about.

So, read on, because whether you attended or not, hundreds of new dis-coveries are just pages away.

Dolby DP600 Program Optimizer

For file -based broadcast and postproduction environments, the Dolby® DP600 ProgramOptimizer ensures loudness consistency from program to program, between programsand commercials, or between the channels within your service. Postproduction,terrestrial networks, affiliates, and cable, satellite, and IPTV operators can equallybenefit from the DP600, which automatically analyzes and normalizes the loudness ofprograms in standard broadcast file formats.

The DP600-C version adds faster -than -real-time encoding, decoding, and transcodingof Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby E, and MPEG-1 LII formats.

New for both DP600 configurations is an optional software upgrade that addsintelligent file -based upmixing functionality based on a newly developed Dolbyalgorithm. It automatically creates 5.1 -channel programs from stereo or Lt/Rt sources,and easily integrates into a work profile along with loudness correction, encoding,decoding, or transcoding.

The Dolby DP600 Program Optimizer is the complete audio processing answer forfile -based work flows that saves time and money. For more information, visitwww.dolby.com/dp600.

Mini Converters feature a redundant input and loopthrough SDI output. Connect a redundant SDI cable tothe second input, and if the main SDI input is lost, MiniConverters will automatically switch over in an instant.That's great for mission critical tasks such as live events.

Pro Analog and AES/EBU Audio

Standard 1/4 inch jacks are built in to each Mini Converterfor professional balanced audio that switches betweenAES/EBU or analog. Unlike other converters you don'tneed expensive custom audio cables.

New 3 Gb/s SDI TechnologyMini Converters include the latest3 Gb/s SDI technology, so you're alwaysfuture proofed! 3 Gb/s SDI is also fully

compatible with all your existing standard definitionand high definition SDI equipment.

Broadcast Quality

Mini Converters are built to the highest quality standardswith low SDI jitter, so you get the longest SDI cablelengths combined with ultra low noise broadcast qualityanalog video and audio.

Five Exciting Models

Choose either SDI to HDMI, HDMI to SDI, SDI to Analogor Analog to SDI models for only US$495. Reference all

How To Spend $3000 and Save $300,000 (And Get Peace of Mind)

You can easily protect your on -airfeed and be sure to be on -air allthe time with an Avenue ProtectionSwitch. Simply feed your primaryon -air feed and your secondary,back-up signal into the Avenue pro-tection switch. If the primary fails,the secondary signal will take over.

For today's hybrid station, aswitch that handles all types of videosignals - HD, SD, 310M and ASI- is a must.

Superior circuitry detects blacklevels, TRS, audio presence, andfreeze for HD and SD video signals.For SMPTE-310M and ASI signals,

PIDs and PMTs are evaluated. Youset the parameters for when a switchoccurs. You might decide 10 secondsof signal below 12 IRE or 14 sec-onds of no embedded audio shouldcause a switch to the secondary feed.Plus you can set alarms to GPO or toemail you.

This is the smartest, most reli-able protection switch on the mar-ket today. And relay bypass makes iteven more reliable.

So consider spending $3000 tosave $300,000. Using the AvenueProtection Switch can save you fromunexpectedly going off -air which can

cost thousands. Customers have toldus that this kind of insurance iswell worth the investment. Call usfor a list of happy customers and askfor the 5 -year warranty that comeswith all of our products. And, whenyou do call, you can be sure you'llget a live person on the phone!

Try the Avenue bypass protectionswitch 10 days for free.Satisfaction guaranteed.

ELBER PRODUCT LINETo satisfy the needs of the alwaysgrowing number of clients and tobe competitive in different appli-

cations, Elber has a wide range of prod-ucts in continuous evolution. The prod-ucts can be distinguished: fixed radiolinks (STL systems), mobile radio links,DENG systems and FM links for radiobroadcasters.

The fixed radio links product linehave always been Elber's selling force. Su-perior performance and the simplicity ofinstallation are the main characteristicsof these products that bring Elber to theworld leadership in this market segment.

However, to respond to the constantevolutions of the market, it is necessaryto develop equipment that require fastinstallation and have small dimensions.Such characteristics are met by the mobileradio links, a sector where Elber has mademany investments in the past years.

The latest challenge for Elber is theDENG market. Aware of the ever in-creasing need of portable and fast set-

up systems, Elber presents a new highlytechnological range of products, main-taining the Company's idea of offeringhigh performance equipment at com-petitive prices.

The R&D department offers an in-novative and highly performing solutionfor Radio Broadcasters: apart from therenowned NBFM-01 microwave link, us-ing an innovative digital signal process-ing of the modulated FM signal, Elber hasdeveloped new and alternative solutionsfor audio transport on digital networks.A new product line, called SRS, has beendeveloped based on the Radio Softwaretechnology, obtaining excellent results andflexibility unique on the world market.

Fig. 1 gives a general view of the 4main product categories offered by Elberfor the transport of audio and video sig-nals on large scale.

Fig. 1 Elber's Products

For a television broadcaster it is ex-tremely important to have equipmentwhich is quick and easy to install, suitedfor mobile applications. This is the typi-cal configuration for live transmissionsfor both news, and entertainment pro-grams, where the use of a wireless camerasystem (WLCT-02) is ideal to guaranteeportability and mobility. The video sig-nal of the wireless camerais transmitted to the mo-bile site (OB-VAN) wherea digital COFDM receiverand decoder (WLR-03)are installed. The DVB-ASI output signal from thereceiver is subsequentlytransferred to the studiothrough a portable micro-wave link (CPM).

The studio applicationsvary from the transport ofthe DVB-ASI signal com-ing from a remote site, tothe transport of a DVB-ASI signal generated bythe Software Radio System(SRS)- able to process dig-itally and transport audiosignals (MUX STEREO)on DVB-ASI streams.

The multiplexed com-posite signal ASI-MUX ismodulated by the highlyreconfigurable DDM310digital modem. The mod-ulated signal is then trans-mitted (T_SL) on the de-sired frequency band. Theoutput signal of the trans-mitter can be divided andsent to two separate an-tennas placed at different

heights, to protect the system from mul-tipath fading.

The reception of both signals is in-dependent but with the use of a HitlessSwitch, the two composite ASI-MUXstreams are aligned and packet by packet,the error -free stream is sent to the out-put. The ASI demultiplexer separates andgives back the original signals.

The digital portable multi -channel

microwave radio system CPM is

Elber's R&D latest product.

The working frequency can be any

500 MHz band between 6 GHz and

15 GHz and the modulation can be

either analogue (FM), digital (COFDM)

or both. An external IF input for

back-up signals is also available.

These features make the CPM the ideal

equipment for fast and reliable mobilelinks, even in hard weather conditions.

The COFDM section includes an

SD 4:2:0/4:2:2 encoder. In addition,

an FM modulator and demodulatorimplemented with Software Radio

techniques are also available.

The control unit can be either indooror outdoor. The latter is housed in aweatherproof box, while the indoor

control unit is lodged in a1U 19" standard rack.
