High teams

The ALtum equipment, which will be used during London 2012, are multi-format (H.264 / MPEG-2) high definition (HD) encoders and decoders, which support the 4:2:2 profile (422P@HL in MPEG-2 and Hi422P@L4 in H.264) with low delay, both in MPEG-2 and H.264, offering excellent image quality.

Regarding transport interfaces, Altum equipment has one or two IP ports and, optionally, DVB-ASI (in the encoders two output ports and in the decoders one loop input and output port). The equipment supplied for the Games will have two IP and DVB-ASI ports.
The devices can be managed by web page and by SNMP, so they can be integrated into management platforms.
