Description

Thor SDI Modulator is the Hybrid to choose. This is the most versatile SDI & HDMI unit form Thor

 

This unit provides up to 8 SDI or HDMI inputs you can select either in the options menu or on the simple and creative GUI. This Thor modulator has independent input cards for flexibility for Digital Modulation because it eliminates the need for SDI to HDMI or HDMI to SDI  converters. Simply select which source you want to use and input the channel frequency creating an automated encoding headend device that can clean up your headend and modulation distribution infrastructure.

 

Each channel can individually be selected as an SDI or HDMI input, it could be switched on the fly using front panel buttons or Thor's dynamic proprietary Web interface. Each of the 8 channels of RF output can be set totally independent as a frequency AND modulation standard. For example, you can input 4 channels of SDI and set to ATSC output and then input 4 channels of HDMI and set to QAM. This is a flexibility that hasn't been seen before on the market creating a whole new generation of standard for encoder modulation products.

 

The New THOR HYBRID Modulator has an NMS port and LCD display with simple D-Pad buttons for control and easy setup on the fly. It includes and supports the majority of Modulation standards found in the world; like Clear QAM Annex A and Annex B, ATSC-8VSB, DVB-T, and ISDB-T. The Hybrid modulator support MPEG2 video encoding up to 25Mbps/channel, Audio AC3 or MPEG1 Layer 2, and AAC, Thor's world-famous Low Latency, and VCT -Virtual Channel Numbers for increased flexibility. Each CATV RF channel can be set individually, so it does not have to be in a linear 8ch block, feel free to spread out your new custom RF channels all over the existing RF spectrum in your modulation lineup.

Question and Answers
Answer:

We have a perfect solution for your application. If I understand correctly you will have the following Video inputs:1 X SDI ( PTZ Camera, by the way, we can supply it as well, we will start selling PTZ  SDI cameras next month, I will send you a datasheet.) 3 x HDMI sources - DVD Player, Computer output and CATV RF signal, for this you will need to have a decoder, something like this QAM to HDMI decoder:https://thorbroadcast.com/product/catv-rf-and-atsc-rf-to-hdmi-decoder-stb-8230.html In this case, the better choice is to use H-HYBRID-8-RF, this is the best hybrid modulator because it has 8 inputs and each input can be HDMI or SDI and supports all the modulation standard like DVB-C QAM, ATSC, DVB-T, ISDB-T, and DTMB. The H-2HDMI-2SDI-XXX-IPLL is a good unit but it has 2 SDI and 2 HDMI inputs, you can not do 3 HDMI and 1 SDI on that unit, besides this unit has IPTV output as well and costs almost the same as H-HYBRID-RF-8

Answer:
We have two options to choose from. 
 
There is the TDM mux model which can do up to HD-SDI or 1.485Gbps
 
We also have the CWDM model which can do up to 3G-SDi and 2.985Gbps
Answer:

F combiners come in a variety of standards, our H-2x1-RF is $10

You combine the RF signal out of the unit, using the above combiner, then
you send the RG6 to all equipment.
Chances are you will need AMPS and TAPS for that many devices.
63 endpoints would require some planning and due diligence by a
Commercial AV professional, or an electrical engineer.
They would need to map out power budgets, and plan accordingly with
RG6 distribution planning.

We do not have a tuner for your LED screen because the output from
those modulators is NTSC analog, we do not have analog receivers.
We only have digital QAM and ATSC tuners, you can view that here:

Answer:
Please check those products 1 or 2 or 4 SDI to DVB-T ( not DVB-T2)
https://thorbroadcast.com/product/1-4-sdi-to-dvb-t-rf-modulators-and-iptv-streaming-encoders.html/11
 
 
We do have also 8ch SDI/HDMI multi standard modulator, - including DVB-T
https://thorbroadcast.com/product/8-channel-sdi-and-hdmi-clear-catv-rf-modulator-qam-8230.html
Answer:
The Hybrid model does include QAM 256; below are all the standards built into the unit. It's in the specs on the webpage. 

1) DVB -C  QAM - J.83B, J.83B, QAM 64/256, (US Cable)

2) DVB -C  QAM - J.83A, QAM 16/32/64/128/256,  (European Cable)

3) ATSC - Constellation 8VSB ( US Off Air TV)

4) DVB-T ( European Off Air TV)

5) ISDB-T ( Latin America Off Air TV)

 

In addition I wanted to ask if these modulators allowed for the 20.1, 20.2 Channel scheme or if they were limited to the single 20, 21 channel scheme.

These particular models do not allow you to put multiple programs on ONE RF channel, so they are limited to just whole numbers; only one input can go on one RF channel.

 

 

 

These models are the only ones we make that can do multiple programs on one channel like 20.1, 20.5, etc because they have the encoding chipset that makes it possible. 

 

Lastly I wanted to ask if the channels that were selected were able to be out of order or if they needed to be Concurrent I.E 1,2,3,4 or something along the lines of 3,5,8,12.

You can cherry pick channels and set them up however you like, they do not have to be concurrent. This can be done via channel selection or VCT.
