Unparalleled Broadcast Transmission Efficiency
NovelSat FUSION is an integrated Satellite Transmission / Transcoding / TransRating Solution. It enables broadcasters to squeeze even more SD, HD and UHD channels into less satellite bandwidth without costly network expansions. On top of transmission efficiency and flexibility, NovelSat Fusion also protects content using the advanced AES 256-bit encryption standard.
Optimized All-in-One Integration
NovelSat Fusion is the most flexible, efficient family of encoding, transmission and streaming solutions for TV broadcast over satellite and delivery to terrestrial networks. FUSION is a scalable solution that receives multiple video streams in different formats and encodes them into HEVC and transmits via satellite using any transmission standard (DVB-S2/2X) including NovelSat NS4, the world’s most efficient satellite waveform.
On the Receive side, the FUSION IRD Transcoder converts the data into multiple output channels in any video format (MPEG-2, MPEG-4 (H264-AVC) and HEVC (H265) to support OTT, ABR and linear TV streams.
Up to 80% Savings in Bandwidth Costs
By combining both NovelSat NS4 modulation and HEVC encoding in the same server, Fusion delivers up to 320% higher capacity (70% bandwidth savings) compared with DVB-S2/MPEG-4 solutions in current networks.
