All, You might enjoy this from the GENROCO Website as well: TURBOfibrer DVP-2732 Digital Video Broadcast Interface for PCI Specification Highlights International standard Digital Video Broadcast 270 megabit per second sustained data rate Compliant with PCI Version 2.1 specification PCI bus signaling at 5 volts or 3.3 volts 7 inch PCI form factor DVB-PI compliant copper or optical interface Powered by a 100MHz 32 bit Java Engine Hardware and Firmware assists for DVB stream multiplexing Integrated low jitter DVB encoder and serializer Full power-up and service diagnostics Supported on most PCI-based computers The GENROCO TURBOstor DVP-2732 PCI Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) controller interfaces PCI based computers to various DVB devices (including other DVP-2732 and DVB-270P controllers). This intelligent controller has a very efficient, patented architecture designed for the highest possible throughput of data between the host computer and the video subsystem while employing a minimal amount of CPU overhead. Each DVP-2732 is capable of sustaining aggregate transfer rates up to 270 Mbits per second. High bandwidth data transfers are a requirement for many image processing applications including video on demand, video database editing, cable head, and satelite link. Firmware for DVB controller or communications interface applications can be dynamically loaded from the PCI host platform. The DVP-2732 has a peak data rate of 270 megabits (27 megabytes) per second. The sustainable throughput across the PCI bus will vary depending on the configuration. As many as 60 to 70 MPEG2 streams at 3 megabits per second each can be supported.
