ASI Encode/Decode
168. What is ASI?
DVB-ASI is asynchronous serial interface described by EN50083-9. It is used to
transport MPEG-2 over coaxial cable, wireless, or fiber optic at 270 Mbps (same rate as
SD-SDI). The MPEG-2 (long-GOP) data rate over ASI can be from ~5 to ~15 Mbps for
standard definition video and ~18 to ~214 Mbps for high definition video. ASI can also
carry MPEG-4 video as well.
