This transmitter is completely sealed, protected against aircraft power anomalies and spikes and each port is lightning protected. The RF output port which sends an RF signal to an Antenna on the outSide of the aircraft can handle transients to 60,000 amps (peak). The M2EHPT-160 combines all the features and capabilities of Cobham Tactical Communications & Surveillance's Messenger 2 AVC HD/SD Transmitter with the additional features listed in the Key System Features above. Key features include Dual HD/SD AudiolVideo/Data processing with end-to-end system-level latencies of down to -44 ms when used with CS Receiver/Decoders. www.cobham.comitcs

Messenger 2 Enhanced High—Power Transmitter ECUDEEIAIAINA (M2EHTP—160) DEC 2012 Data Sheet The M2EHPT—160 accepts Standard Definition (SD) or High Definition (HD) 4:2:2 digital video or analog SD composite video analog stereo audio inputs (Mic or Line level) or optional Embedded Audio. The video is compressed according to the Advanced Video Compression (AVC)/h.264 specifications. The low—latency AVC Encoder supports the Baseline Profiles with resolutions from 480 to 1080 with, extensions to support either interlaced or progressive formats. The audio is compressed using MPEG Layer II compression. Low—rate user data up to 38.4 kBaud can be optionally supported. The audio, video and user data packets PES streams for each of the two programs (if running dual programs) are multiplexed with basic service data to indicate the service name and combine to a single multi—program Transport Stream{(TS). The TS can be scrambled with optional AES scrambling system to provide protection insensitive applications. The 4K HIGH—THROUGHPUT OPTION enables user—selectable options to set bandwidths from 6 MHz to 16 MHz and to double the throughput of our standard M2T (Up to 63 Mbps). Using 4K carriers and the 16 MHz bandwidth, the link can support HD operation with >12 Mbps while running QPSK and 1/2 FEC. This increases link robustness and provides an additional 13.5 dB increase in link margin (>4.7 x increase in operating range!) for the same throughput rate in a standard HD MPEG—2 DVB—T system! With the 4K HIGH—THROUGHPUT OPTION you can run with fully DVB—T compliant 2K carriers and bandwidths of 6, 7, or 8 MHz. When you switch to 4K carriers you can select 12, 14 or 16 MHz bandwidth. The 4K HIGH—THROUGHPUT OPTION is also useful when transmitting multiple video streams through one transmitter. This option requires a special receiver configuration.

Messenger 2 Enhanced High-Power Transmitter (M2EHTP- 160) DEC 2012 Data Sheet robust digital modulation system known as Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (COFDM) that provides frequency diversity and powerful Forward Error Correction (FEC) algorithms. The ProRX provides up to eight channels Pre-Detect Maximal-Ratio Diversity Combining which can have many benefits including increased Signal Strength, Signal to Noise Ratio and combat short delay spread multipath reflections found in indoor environments. The ProRX outputs a transport stream over ASI or LAN Streaming. External AudioNideo/Data AVC Decoders, like the M2D support HD and SD AVC Decoding. For these airborne applications, the net effect of these eight antennas and the diversity properties of the COFDM receivers are to provide unbroken aircraft coverage over a hemispherical-pattern without resort to moving parts (mechanical auto trackers). Note that from a system standpoint the dip at the cross-over point between any of the two antenna elements will be eliminated due to the Pre-Detect Diversity Combining gain of the PRORX receiver. This provides excellent coverage over a modified OMNI pattern. One of the biggest problems encountered in the transition from an analog to a digital AN platform has been the inherent digital coding delay that, in some digital systems, are 1.5 seconds or more for HD. The M2EHPT-160 employs a specially designed 'Ultra-Low Delay' coding technology, which proVides down to -44 ms nframe) end- to-end system delay when using Cobham Tactical Communications & Surveillance's AVC Decoder. This ensures that the picture you see is what is happening now which is crucial for applications such as sports coverage, surveillance, and law enforcement, where personnel are reacting to real-time events. The M2EHPT-160 can optionally provide time-correlated KLV-1 and KLV-2 META*** data processing*Dthat is used in Airborne Surveillance Applications and Geospatial determination. The META data can be extracted from the SDIIHD-SDI video's ancillary data space or input on a separate RS-422 interface. LAN/IP Port The M2EHPT- 160 contains a 1011 OOBaseT LAN interface that can be used both for Control & Status monitoring and for optional Transport Stream (TS) streaming in and out of the device. The MAC address can be assigned automatically via a DHCP server or via manual settings. Control & Status monitoring is accomplished via a WEB browser application that launches from the device. TSs can be sent out or in via UDP/IP transfer protocols. 3D Support*** 3D is a very new area in the Broadcast industry. From a content collection standpoint it is normally accomplished with two separate cameras that are GEN-LOCKED together, outputting two separate video signals. Content Collection Format The encoder maintains a frame by frame synchronization as it goes through its processing. If one frame from one of the cameras skips for some reason, the frame from the other camera is dropped. www.cobham.com/tcs
