It comes in two frames: the 1RU AFN-1000, with a system host, dual power supplies, a front panel and room for seven further modules, and the portable quarter-rack AFN-250, which takes a host module plus one more. Encoder and decoder modules handle HEVC and H.264 up to 4K\/60p at 4:2:2 10-bit, with SDI up to 12G and ASI, IP and SRT transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncode and decode up to 4K\/UHD with 12G-SDI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHEVC and H.264 at 4:2:2 10-bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-low-latency, ultra-dense encoding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASI and native IP\/SRT I\/O with multiplexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1RU AFN-1000 or portable AFN-250 frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeb-based user interface on both frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePart number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAFN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSencore AFN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAFN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContribution Encoder\/Decoder\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrames\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAFN-1000 (1RU, host + 7 modules, dual PSU) \/ AFN-250 (1\/4RU portable, 2 modules)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVideo encode\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHEVC\/H.265 and AVC\/H.264 up to 4K\/60p\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChroma \/ bit depth\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4:2:2 or 4:2:0, 8-bit or 10-bit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEncode rates\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4K\/UHD 10-80 Mbps; HD 1.1-24.5 Mbps; SD 0.2-3 Mbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVideo decode\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHEVC\/H.265 and AVC\/H.264 up to 4K\/60p\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVideo inputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSD\/HD\/3G-SDI; 12G-SDI on the 610 encoder module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAudio\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMPEG-1 Layer 2, AAC; Dolby Digital pass-through\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTransport\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eASI and native IP\/SRT I\/O with multiplexing; dual GigE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90-264 VAC; dual redundant supplies (AFN-1000)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize (AFN-1000)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.75 x 18.97 x 18.51 in (44 x 482 x 470 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOperating temp\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 50 °C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatellite newsgathering (SNG\/DSNG) contribution encoding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemote production and ultra-low-latency contribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDense encode and decode at uplink and downlink sites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDoes Digisat supply and support Sencore equipment?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
