The PRORXD-1RU is a feature-rich COFDM receiver/decoder with DUAL optional receive and HD decoding
capability in a single enclosure. Designed specifically for the demanding broadcast market, it is supplied in
a 1/2 19” 1RU high rack chassis, where two units can be mounted together to occupy a 19” slot and uses
standard broadcast connectors for signal interfaces.
The PRORXD-1RU is available with 2-way or 4-way maximum ratio combining RF inputs, ensuring video is
recovered free from the distortions typically associated with fading and multipath. All DVB-T 6/7/8MHz
modes are supported, plus DTC’s 6/7/8MHz UMVL (Ultra Mobile Video Link) modulation – designed to

2.5MHz bandwidth is available as an option. Designed to work with external DTC down-converters, the
receiver can be located up to 100m from the antennas using standard 75

co-axial cables.
The unit incorporates an extremely flexible decoding platform, with low delay H.264 decoding ensuring
compatibility with all DTC and most 3rd party encoders. An optional 2nd decoder can be enabled, allowing
