Product Description

 

The BLANKOM IGS-8008 is a high-performance DVB-to-IP gateway designed for professional IPTV headends and TV distribution systems. It integrates eight DVB-S/S2/S2X tuners (or optional DVB-C/T/T2/ISDB-T tuners) with advanced de-multiplexing capabilities in a compact 1U rack-mount chassis.

The gateway receives content from up to eight RF transponders and converts selected TV and radio services into up to 64 SPTS IP streams. When equipped with DVB-S/S2/S2X tuners, it supports Free-to-Air (FTA) satellite reception.

Flexible PID filtering and PID remapping enable efficient program selection and optimized bandwidth management for professional IPTV applications.

Designed to meet a wide range of deployment requirements, the IGS-8008 allows programs to be demultiplexed from any available RF input. Integrated RF loop-through outputs simplify signal distribution and system expansion without requiring additional splitters.

The generated transport streams can be delivered using multiple industry-standard protocols, including UDP, RTP, RTSP, RTMP, HTTP, HLS, and SRT, making the IGS-8008 suitable for IPTV operators, broadcasters, hotels, cable operators, enterprise networks, and other professional multimedia distribution environments.

Versatile Deployment Scenarios & Application Examples

1. Direct OTT & Web-Based IPTV Distribution (HLS / HTTP) Unlike strictly LAN-bound gateways, the IGS-8008 eliminates the immediate need for external transcoders or streaming servers for small-to-medium deployments. ISP and OTT operators can convert up to 8 satellite transponders into a curated lineup of up to 64 SPTS streams and deliver them directly to end-user devices, smart TVs, or web players using HLS or HTTP protocols over the public internet.

2. Secure Broadcast Contribution via Public Internet (SRT) For broadcasters operating across multiple geographical locations, traditional satellite or dedicated fiber links are highly expensive. The IGS-8008 utilizes the SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) protocol to transmit pristine, low-latency broadcast feeds from a remote reception site to a central studio over standard, unpredictable public internet connections. It provides packet loss recovery and encryption, ensuring broadcast-grade stability without infrastructure leasing costs.

3. Cloud Media Server & CDN Ingestion (RTMP) System integrators building global streaming infrastructures can deploy the IGS-8008 at a satellite downlink facility to capture regional channels. Using the RTMP protocol, the gateway can push these 64 SPTS streams directly into cloud-based media servers (such as Wowza or AWS MediaLive) or global Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), bridging the gap between local RF reception and global cloud distribution.

4. Corporate & Institutional LAN Broadcasting (UDP / RTP) For standard enterprise environments, the gateway functions as a highly efficient multicast source. It ingests targeted news, financial, or industry-specific satellite channels and distributes them via UDP/RTP across corporate LANs. The 8-tuner capacity and 64 SPTS limit provide the exact density required for corporate headquarters, government campuses, or trading floors without over-provisioning hardware.

5. Hospitality & Smart-TV Direct Streaming (RTSP / HLS) Modern hospitality installations increasingly rely on Smart TVs that do not require external set-top boxes. The IGS-8008 can act as a localized headend for boutique hotels, hospitals, or maritime vessels. By outputting channels in RTSP or HLS, the gateway interfaces directly with the middleware of commercial Smart TVs, drastically simplifying room installations and reducing hardware failure points.

The IGS-8008 is equipped with 8 independent RF tuner inputs on its hardware architecture. It utilizes flexible, universal tuner modules that can support DVB-S/S2/S2X satellite, DVB-T/T2 terrestrial, or DVB-C cable standards based on software configuration, enabling operators to ingest diverse signal feeds into a single 1U chassis.

The IGS-8008 is a high-density, FTA (Free-to-Air) targeted gateway. It does not incorporate physical Common Interface (CI) slots for CAM modules. For premium encrypted networks, it is optimized to capture the clear FTA transponders or process unencrypted digital feeds directly at the PID level for downstream IP delivery. Our model IGS-700/84 has Common Interface (CI) slots for CAM modules.

The gateway architecture features dual Gigabit Ethernet (1000M) output ports executing line-rate processing. It is capable of multiplexing and streaming out up to 128 independent SPTS (Single Program Transport Stream) or MPTS (Multi-Program Transport Stream) channels concurrently over UDP and RTP protocols, fully satisfying carrier-grade high-density headend demands.

Yes, advanced PID management is natively integrated into the embedded processing layer. The device allows operators to execute precise PID filtering, PID remapping, and custom channel allocation per IP output stream. This prevents stream collisions and ensures seamless downstream compatibility with edge decoders and Set-Top Boxes.

Yes. The IGS-8008 includes powerful TS (Transport Stream) parameter editors. It automatically parses incoming NIT, PAT, PMT, and SDT tables, allowing engineers to manually edit service names, provider identifiers, and transport stream IDs before broadcasting the payload into the IP network infrastructure.

For DVB-S/S2/S2X satellite applications, the tuner modules operate within the standard L-band range of 950 MHz to 2150 MHz with a wide input level tolerance from -65 dBm to -25 dBm. For terrestrial and cable feeds (DVB-T2/C), it safely covers the standard VHF/UHF bands, guaranteeing stable demodulation locks under variable signal conditions.

Yes. While it lacks physical CI slots, the BLANKOM IGS-8008 supports embedded hardware-assisted BISS (Basic Interoperable Scrambling System) Mode 1 and Mode E decryption. This allows operators to input hexadecimal keys directly through the web management console to decode secured satellite contribution feeds seamlessly.

System configuration and monitoring are fully handled via an intuitive WebGUI accessible through a dedicated 100M independent management port. For automated corporate monitoring setups, the unit supports standard SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) triggers, allowing real-time status alarms for tuner lock states, BER, and bit-rate drops.

Designed for continuous 24/7 industrial distribution, the hardware incorporates an energy-efficient design housed in a standard 19-inch 1U rack-mount chassis. The dual Gigabit IP data outputs can be configured for port redundancy or traffic splitting to secure the distribution path against physical layer dropouts.

Yes, irenis-blankom.com provides comprehensive Ordering Guides alongside technical datasheets for the IGS-8008 series. Operators can specify tuner block allocations (e.g., pure DVB-S2X configurations versus hybrid terrestrial layouts) and power supply variations to meet precise telecom standards during the project RFQ stage.
