Newtec Elevation EL940 32APSK DVB Satellite IP Demodulator
Full compliance with DVB-S, DVB-DSNG or DVB-S2 standards
EL940 DVB-S2 IP Receiver
** This product is end of life and has been superceded by the Newtec MDM6000 **
The Newtec EL940 is a high performance professional satellite IP receiver designed for the reception of IP traffic transmitted over satellite in compliance with the DVB-S, DVB-DSNG or DVB-S2 standards. The EL940 connects directly to terrestrial IP network infrastructures via a single auto-switching Gigabit Ethernet interface. The receiver demodulates, restores and filters the data received from the satellite at rates of up to 154Mbit/s.
The EL940 comes with a single, fixed hardware configuration optimized for applications that requires a low initial investment without compromising on performance. It is ideally suited for point-to-multipoint applications, such as content distribution.
The PC architecture and the Linux operating system of the EL940 allows to integrate data processing software, such as Newtec Tellitec IP software, directly on the unit (this integration may modify the performance of the device).
