DT-NTSC-32 Manual
Chapter 1 Product Overview
The DataTronix DT-NTSC-32 takes digital video signals from an IP source, such as a COM3000
or DT-ATSC-IP-8V2 and converts the IP source to analog modulated NTSC TV channels. This
unit can output up to 32 NTSC channels. It solves a common problem for senior living housing
and any other commercial properties that may still have some analog TV's on site, or digital
TV’s not capable of decoding certain video formats. It can receive and decode multiple HD or
SD IP video streams in either MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 or H.265 format. This modulator
supports numerous audio formats that can be decoded and reformatted for NTSC analog
modulated TV channels. This unit is perfect for the following use cases:
Low income properties wanting free off-airTV service in NTSC analog can use the DataTronix
DT-ATSC-IP-8V2 to receive and convert the off-air signals to IP, then use the DT-NTSC-32 to
modulate them onto NTSC analog TV channels.
Properties receiving satellite TV with a DIRECTV COM3000 can connect the DT-NTSC-32 to
modulate 32 satellite channels onto NTSC analog TV channels to support legacy televisions,
gym equipment, or other non-Pro:Idiom displays.
