The Ericsson RX8315 distribution receiver provides capability to perfectly match the needs for video  

distribution applications for turn-around of content into both analog and digital networks. The RX8315 

uses the latest technology to let operators take full advantage of the efficiency improvements from  

DVB-S2 modulation, PREKOR™ Dynamic Pre-correction System by Ericsson, and MPEG-4 AVC  

compression to distribute three times the amount of content through a satellite transponder verses  

traditional satellite distribution solutions.  

The RX8315 provides compatibility with DVB Common Interface CA systems, offering both single  

service and multi-service decryption capability. Decrypted transport streams can be handed off into  

digital networks through a choice of ASI or IP output interfaces. The RX8315 can optionally decode any 

MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 AVC 4:2:0 video standard, down-converting from HD to SD where necessary to 

provide an SD composite video output for interfacing to analog networks or for low cost monitoring. 

The RX8315 simplifies content acquisition for cable, satellite and telco operators in the all-digital  

future of TV broadcasting. 

PRODUCT OVERVIEW 

The Perfect Choice for a Large Network 

The RX8315 is the perfect receive device for distribution of video  
services throughout a large network. The RX8315 provides the most 
up-to-date feature-set, combining maximum transmission efficiency 
with easy remote management of the receiver population. The 
RX8315 provides all major functionality and connectivity required to 
hand-off the service into the remote network. 

Increased Distribution Capacity and Efficiency 

The RX8315 distribution receiver, in combination with Ericsson’s 
MPEG-4 AVC encoders and PREKOR Dynamic Pre-correction, leads 
to a highly efficient video distribution system. Combined with the  
addition 30 percent increase in channel capacity of DVB-S2 the 
RX8315 allows operators to achieve three times the amount of  
content through a transponder. 

Simplified Control and Lower Cost of Operations 

Organizations with large populations of RX8315 receivers and other 
Ericsson receivers can simplify control by integrating with Director by 
Ericsson control system. Director provides remote, over-air, single-
view control from a central location, reducing the need for on-site local 
operators.
