MEG Media Edge Gateway

The Media Edge Gateway (MEG and MEG.mini) is a flexible, software-defined edge processor equipped with powerful edge processing functions such as transcoding, regionalization, time delay, blackout, decrypt, decode and encode across satellite/ CDN/IP networks. The platform provides cloud-to-ground and ground-to-cloud connectivity and tailors content handoff to meet the needs of affiliates and MVPDs. The futureproof gateway leverages multiple deployment options – including Synamedia appliances, COTS servers, containers, and full virtual environments – to increase your business’ agility. By working in your environment of choice – on-premises, public cloud, or hybrid cloud – you can control costs and simplify management. Integrate with Synamedia’s PowerVu or third-party content protection solutions to secure your entire video network chain from distribution, through processing, to delivery. MEG includes two or four satellite RF ports per satellite input card to provide support for up to four or eight satellite demodulators with DVB-S, DVB-S2, and DVB S2X support. The platform enables you to create cost-effective, application-specific gateways, such as satellite/ATSC 3.0 receivers and SMPTE ST 2110/ SMPTE ST 2022-6/3G-SDI output decoders, to deliver innovative value-added experiences and to unlock new monetization opportunities.
