ABOUT THE HYDRA MULTI-TELEVISION IP VIDEO GATEWAY

Hydra is Entone’s home IP video gateway, and provides end-user connectivity for video service providers.

The Hydra is equipped with up to 3 decoders. It can support up to three concurrent programs playing on

different TVs.

The Hydra can be connected to a nearby TV and TV(s) located in other room(s). You can tune your TV to

one of the 3 decoders. Each remote control is registered for one decoder. Use the registered remote control

to control the decoder.

Figure 3-2 Hydra Connecting the Home

Hydra provides several options for connecting the primary TV to the video feed. Video baseband outputs

include S-Video, component video, and composite video. Audio outputs include baseband stereo (RCA)

and multi-channel digital (SPDIF), as well as modulated RF output.

Hydra supports telco service signaling, such as Caller ID and Call Waiting Caller ID, and displays it

conveniently on the television set. It supports interoperability and IP networking standards and protocols.

Finally, Hydra helps protect service operators from service theft and content piracy by providing security

features such as integrated DVB/DES descrambling, conditional access and, optionally, Macrovision’s anti-

taping support.
