TDX HeadendQuite simply a revolution

TDX.Receive thetechnologythat turnseverythingon its head.Forget everything you know about headends. With TRIAX TDXyou move into a completely new world. TRIAX’s revolutionaryTDX Pool technology simplifies the setting up and handlingof headends. This technology makes the input and outputmodules mutually independent. All input signals, regardless ofwhether they are received via satellite, terrestrial, cable, audio/video or via the Internet, can be flexibly and independentlydistributed from a “pool” to each and every output module.Each of these input signals can be converted to any outputsignal: PAL, QAM, COFDM or IP, and because the input signalsare not fixed to any particular outputs, an input signal can beassigned to several output modules. It’s that simple.3 TDX

TDX-Pool.Take the plunge into the futureEntrance/InputInvest in technology that already meets the requirements of tomorrow, such as HD, MPEG 4,CI/CAM, transport stream processing (muxing, NIT, PID, stuffing). Put your money on asystem that merges the highest level of efficiency with reliability, and benefit from theadvantages provided by one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of headends. With TRIAXyou can always rely on fast customised assistance and consultancy for tendering, planning,installation, configuration and maintenance.TRIAX TDX-Pool technology:4 TDXallocations for input and output modules, resulting inImmerse yourself in tomorrow’s technologyfreedom from restrictions imposed by signal conversion.In close collaboration with planners, installers andAll incoming signals initially land in a so-called TDX-Pool.operators, TRIAX has developed a new technology thatFrom this pool they can be converted into any requiredis orientated towards the needs of users. The new TRIAXoutput signals and then simultaneously fed to severalTDX-Pool technology frees the system of compulsoryoutput modules.

Exit/OutputAll assignments between input to output signals can beand clear reception result. The signal quality, e.g. PALreadily changed at any time. This makes TDX uniquelywith a Video S/N of typically 58 dB or for QAM with aflexible, efficient and economical.MER of typically 35 dB is excellent.Reliable reception without any noiseEasy to install. Easy to use.System planning is performed quickly and reliably viaThe completed XML file from the Configurator canthe Internet using the TDX-Configurator. Simply use thebe transferred to any laptop. Thus the completeprogram to specify the desired inputs and outputs andpre-planning data used for designing the system, canthe Configurator does everything else. Not only doesbe quickly transferred to the TDX system to perform theit optimally select the components for the system, itinstallation.also programs the desired system configuration as anTRIAX has optimised system handling: Installation andXML file. At the same time it calculates the maximumcommissioning is very easy, and operating the system ispermissible bandwidth for each channel, preventingvery friendly for users and service ng of the output signal that ensures a noise-free5 TDX

TDX. Technology,that can do more.Better and strongerperformance:Up to three TDX-Headends can be combined as one system ofinput and output signals, thus up to 72 PAL programs or 72 QAMchannels are possible. The digital data streams aretransferred via the transceiver interface by Cat-5 cable or opticalfibre, as such the input and output modules can be located farapart from each other; no data is lost in digital optical transmission.Within the system the coax output signals can be combinedin the usual manner via a combiner. The HF output level of theintegrated TDX output amplifier can be software-adjusted withinthe range 85 dBµV through 103 dBµV.Energy-friendly andlong-term reliabilityCompared with similar systems, the TDX-Headend usesconsiderably less power. A fully loaded headend with 16 tunersand 6x4 QAM outputs (that equates to approx. 100 tv programmes) consumes no more than 0.2 kW. This low power consumption coupled with intelligent cooling with four integrated fans increases the life of the equipment and ensures long-term reliability.Compact housing, quick installationThe housing is designed to accommodate up to 16 input and 6 Quad output modules; it is extremely compactand can be easily installed on a wall or within a 19” reack. Irrespective of whether for installation, maintenanceor repair purposes, all inputs and outputs as well as all modules and lines can be accessed and operated easilyfrom the front side. The 22 modules are numbered so their respective allocations are always immediately clear.Each module also has an LED to indicate operation and errors. The well conceived system plus easyprogramming reduces the normal installation time by approx. 50%

Cable managementThe metal covering which is integrated into thehousing can be removed after opening the door.It serves as a cable guide and ensures theconnector lines are protected orderly and easyto access at the headend.HOT SWAP ServiceThe system doesn’t need to be shut down forservicing work, or for replacing an input or outputmodule. All configurated data are stored on theintegrated SD card, thus newly installed modules areimmediately recognised and configured properly.This saves time and the affected system sections continue to work normally. TRIAX alsooffers a fast trouble shooting service that worksusing the individual log files, which can be readfrom every system.Of course, TDX is networkcapable and can be remotely controlled andmonitored.Easy set-up with fewer modulesPool technology and free programming have revolutionised the structure of the headend. With TDXthe input modules are independent of the quattro output modules. This is supplemented by cleversystem programming, so that essential functions can be incorporated into just a few differentmodules, resulting in greater flexibility and higher performance. The respective 4 adjacent outputchannels can be freely selected across the full frequency range from 47 through 862 MHz.7 TDX

TDX.Configuration hasnever been easier.TRIAX TDX can be very easily configured via the Internet. Using the TDX Configurator youcan quickly and safely plan the desired headend, and output the configuration for your dailywork. For example, if you require a material list in advance so you can quickly submit an offer:1.Go to the TRIAX TDX website[ www.triax-tdx.com ]and use the input form toassign a project number.2.Choose which inputand output signals thesystem is to have.Alterations can be madeat any time.8 TDX

3.You obtain an overview of thesystem with its hardwarecomponents. When youplace the order you eitherselect a completely assembledsystem, or a system thatneeds to be assembled, whichmeans you would install theindividual modules yourself.4.Define the channel plan, theTDX-Configuratordoes the rest. It calculates the optimum moduleallocation and creates a corresponding XML file5.The system is then delivered with the requested configuration,either ready to assemble or pre-assembled. Now you just needto install the TDX at the customer’s site, connect the cable andupload the XML file from your laptop.Finished.9 TDX

TDX. A full programfor your successThe TRIAX TDX program offers an optimisedtuned and scaled range of modules.The innovative TDX Pool technology and freeprogramming, considerably reduces the numberof different modules necessary to cover the fullrange of input and output signals.
