Video Encoders and Decoders

Ruggedized Full-Motion Video Compression

With a long history of supplying video encoders and decoders for commercial and defense applications, ViaSat continues to deliver cutting edge video compression devices in extremely small form factors.
 
ENC1000A94 and ENC1000A29 Encoders
Based on Motion JPEG compression, the ENC1000A94 and ENC1000A29 encoders have paved the way for small, ruggedized full-motion video compression devices. For the past 20 years these encoders have been used on applications ranging from the Predator UAV to California Department of Transportation highway monitoring, digitizing and compressing standard definition video to produce a single bit stream for fast transmission. At the receiving end, the DEC1000 series of video decoders can be hooked up to almost any data link for decompression.

Codec2X29 Compressor/Decompressor
The Codec2X29 is a combination MJPEG compressor/decompressor with advanced multiplexing that can combine data from a variety of sources into the same bit stream as the compressed video. A single card version of the Codec2X29 is also available.
 
EnerLinks™ HD Encoder
The newest addition to our encoder family, this small, lightweight, and rugged encoder is compatible with the industry's most advanced ISR sensors and can simultaneously compress one or two streams of high definition (HD) video, or one to four streams of standard definition (SD) video. In addition, the HD encoder can transport KLV metadata that is time-aligned to each video frame in compliance with MISB Standard 0604.1. Integration with IP-ready data links is straightforward as the compressed video and KLV metadata are output by the ViaSat HD Encoder as an MPEG-2 transport stream encapsulated in IP over Ethernet. The EnerLinks HD Encoder is I/O rich, with interfaces to provide metadata via TCP/IP or UDP/IP over Ethernet or via serial ports, two HD-SDI digital video ports, and four NTSC/PAL analog video ports for interfacing with most HD or SD sensor systems.
