Satellite TV takes to Ethernet cables to allow cheaper multi-channel and multi ...

“The IP-LNB will give satellite television providers and consumers new options for distributing unmatched quality satellite television to multiple TVs, computers and tablets over IP at the lowest cost,” said Thomas Wrede of SES Reception Systems.

“When we committed ourselves to making SAT>IP an open standard, we envisioned this type of innovation. It is exciting to see it now come to fruition.”

The IP-LNB effectively puts a satellite receiver on the dish inside the LNB - that funny-looking lump of plastic at the end of the dish’s arm from where the cable runs to your Freesat or Sky box.

It uses MaxLinear’s Full Spectrum Capture DVB-S2 receiver chip to tune into up to eight different TV channels, which are then converted into IP data streams by the Abilis Broadcast-to-Broadband Bridge.

These can be carried over Ethernet, WiFi, Powerline or any other kind of home network to be decoded by TVs, set-top boxes, laptops, tablets or smartphones.
