What is SAT>IP?

is a Communication Protocol for satellite reception devices on IP networks First presented at SES Industry Days in 2011 Since March 2014 available as CENELEC standard EN50585

Adopted and supported now by over 40 manufacturers worldwide SAT>IP will make satellite services: 1. available on more devices (tablets, smart phones, …) 2. transportable via IP in-home infrastructures and in professional environments

Advantage 1: Satellite to reach IP devices

!

3

Advantage 2: Sat-distribution via IP

or IP-LNB

 All free-to-air and encrypted channels are transported via the IP network  For encrypted channels the STB or TV requires a CA subsystem

 Watching encrypted content on an IP device requires implementation of a CA-to-DRM system 4

Architecture

 SAT>IP distinguishes between Servers and Clients  Clients request live satellite TV programs from servers  Servers provide live satellite TV to clients

SAT>IP Servers: -

answer client requests

-

remove the DVB-S/S2 physical layer

-

encapsulate in IP (unicast or multicast, RTP or HTTP)

-

transparently forward TS Packets to clients 6

 SAT>IP clients:

-

remotely request TV programs (DVB TS packets) from a specific satellite transponder

-

specify the IP protocol in which they would like the program delivered

-

display the program to the user

7

SAT>IP protocols SAT>IP is based on open industry standards

 Fully aligned with existing in-home networking and internet standards • Addressing • Discovery • Description

• Session Setup / Control: • Streaming: • Real-Time Session Information:

RTSP / HTTP RTP / HTTP RTCP

SAT>IP is standardized as CENELEC EN50585

Device certification  Interoperability of products is key for a successful market introduction:

-

SES currently handles product certifications

-

Provision of reference servers to SAT>IP developers

-

Availability of software testing tools for developers

 Certified devices may carry the SAT>IP logo:

The IP-LNB

RJ45 (GbE) Home Network

•

The IP-LNB incorporates 8 tuners and demodulators capable of serving up to 8 IP devices on the in-home network with high quality satellite programmes

•

An SES lead innovation initiative with leading international industry partners

•

Status: shipped to SES customers & partners 11

IP-LNB building blocks

Significant additional hardware beyond a Quatro LNB But 8 (!) DVB-S/S2 front-ends incorporated

Software represents majority of development effort/costs 12

Ultra HD flat screen TVs with server

 Announced at IFA 2014  Integrated client & server  55”, 65” and 85”  Integrated HEVC decoder

 Also for Hotel TV (multicast)

Other TV manufacturers to follow in 2015 18

The first IP ready flat antenna

19

Use cases

Panasonic AXW-804 series

Ethernet

Up to 8 devices in the home 20

SAT>IP Alliance  At NAB 2015 the SAT>IP Alliance will be launched  An non-profit organization open for all manufacturers, satellite and TV operators  Scope: further develop and promote the SAT>IP communications protocol

21

Conclusions  SAT>IP brings satellite TV to a plethora of IP devices and supports cost-effective distribution of satellite TV in hotels via (existing) IP infrastructures  Over 40 manufacturers support SAT>IP with already more than 75 products

− Flat screen TVs from Panasonic and soon TP Vision (Philips) − IP-LNB and IP flat antenna available

− SAT>IP specification optionally supports DVB-C and DVB-T  The SAT>IP Alliance will be announced during NAB 2015 and combine the engineering and marketing power of world-leading companies to support SAT>IP  Next step: publication of an “Operator Extension” to support transcoding and CAto-DRM solutions
