The Ericsson RX8330 Distribution Receiver extends the RX8300 series of Integrated Receiver Decoders by 

providing feature-rich multi-format standard definition (SD) decoding capability with high quality SDI output 

for video distribution applications. The RX8330 gives the user access to the latest compression and 

transmission technologies to allow for the most cost-effective and bandwidth transmissions possible while 

ensuring the highest standards of reliability and video quality. 

The RX8330 offers both ASI and the latest DVB-S2 capable satellite input interfaces. As security of content 

is always of paramount importance, compatibility with popular CA systems including DVB Common 

Interface is provided. The RX8330 shows its true class through its capability for multi-format decoding of all 

SD 4:2:0 video standards combined with high quality SDI digital video and analog video outputs. This 

capability is further enhanced by the RX8330’s ability to receive, and down-convert HD video to SD 

providing an SD output for broadcast or monitoring. Additionally for systems that stay in the compressed 

domain, decrypted transport streams can be handed off into digital networks through a choice of both ASI or 

optional IP output interfaces.  

The feature-rich specification of the RX8330 provides the capability and flexibility that places the receiver as 

the key link in the broadcast chain for applications from content distribution and turn-around to critical 

network monitoring. 

Ericsson RX8330 

PRODUCT OVERVIEW 

The Perfect Choice for a Large Network 

The RX8330 is the perfect receive device for distribution of video services 
throughout a large network. The RX8330 provides the most up-to-date 
feature-set, combining maximum transmission efficiency with easy remote 
management of the receiver population. 

Increased Distribution Capacity and Efficiency 

The RX8330 in combination with Ericsson’s MPEG-4 AVC encoders and 
PREKOR™ Dynamic Pre-correction System leads to a highly efficient 
video distribution system. Combined with the additional 30 percent 
increase in channel capacity of DVB-S2 the RX8330 allows operators to 
achieve three times the amount of content through a transponder. 

Multi-format Decoding - a “Safe Choice” for the Future 

The RX8330 decodes all major SD video formats in use today providing 
complete flexibility for daily operations. The versatility that the RX8330 
decoder provides makes it a “safe choice” for companies that are 
beginning to transmit MPEG-4 AVC SD but also continue to work in 
MPEG-2 SD. With the RX8330 they can migrate at their own pace. 

Simplified Control and Lower Cost of Operations 

Organizations with large populations of RX8330 receivers and other 
Ericsson receivers can simplify control by integrating with Director by 
Ericsson. Director provides remote, over-air, single-view control from a 
central location, reducing the need for on-site local operators.
