Press Release: NEW features for the TDcH
TRIAX headends: NEW features for the compact headend TDcH
Future-proof and flexible solution with multiple upgrade options
Hornsyld, Denmark, 20 October 2022 — The TDcH compact headend is now easily upgraded to support IP-In and SNMP monitoring via a new software licence (2.4.0). The software update also activates LED status displays at the inputs and outputs. The new version is available immediately and can be installed on all current and previous models.
The TRIAX compact headend was successfully launched 2 years ago. A highly future-proof platform, it offers great flexibility, with a range of features that can be individually upgraded (via software licences) to meet changing requirements. As experts in headend technology, TRIAX customers can be assured each and every TRIAX headend guarantees the same quality TRIAX experience.
“With the latest IP-In function, IPTV signals can now also be fed in and distributed via coaxial or ethernet networks. A typical application in the hospitality environment is the integration of IPTV services, which can be offered to guests as a programme expansion. In-house programmes with local offers can also be realised in this way and simply fed into the headend.”
– Diemar Rauch, Group Product Manager
The optional SNMP (Single Network Management Protocol) monitoring activates the function in the compact head- end and sends status changes via SNMP traps to SNMP-supporting monitoring software. This enables continuous monitoring, status queries and signalling even via remote networks.
The TDcH has been built on TRIAX advanced Next Generation Headend Platform which offers the full range of signal modulation options from satellite, terrestrial, cable, and now includes IP signals into QAM, COFDM or IP. For subscription TV projects a version with 8 CI slots is also available.
With its compact design, the TDcH can be installed in any 19” rack or wall mounted. Each headend is tested according to strict specifications and is delivered to the customer ready for configuration. Each TRIAX headend system can be set up and monitored via the browser-based management tool. To help deliver the best customer experience, TRIAX skilled team of support engineers are available to provide outstanding service for any installation requests. Regular updates and enhancements are planned for the flexible platform on-going.

Guest information system for any TV – In Touch 6.1
TRIAX In Touch 6.1 Update
Now you can deliver in-room services, information and promotion to hotel guests on TVs of any kind, with the latest update to the TRIAX In Touch interactive communication platform.
Benefits include:
- Minimise outlay: full guest information system now for any TV
- Upsell more: introduce flexible per-room TV packages
- Satisfy guests: meet demand for casting and connectivity
- Freedom and flexibility: place Digital Signs anywhere with new WiFi connectivity
Implementing a guest information system is often challenged by a high investment need, as it requires dedicated hospitality TV sets in all rooms.
With the In Touch 6.1 update and the new TRIAX TV Player, you can install a professional guest information system on TVs of almost any make and model, making the most of your existing equipment and eliminating any need to invest in hospitality TVs.
The TV Player is a compact die-cast box that can be securely mounted behind most TVs, tucked away tamper-free and out of sight. It’s controlled by the included RF-based universal remote, enabling access to all the apps and functionalities of the In Touch platform and the TV itself.
New functionalities for the In Touch TV solution
The In Touch guest room TV solution has been expanded adding three new apps: TV Guide App, TV Pack App and HDMI source select App.
TV Guide App expands the existing now & next feature with a programme guide (EPG) for the next 48 hours.
TV Pack App enables up to 4 different TV channel packages which can be up-sold and added to individual rooms by front desk staff upon request, or potentially used in other commercial communication to differentiate between room offerings.
Finally, the popular HDMI Source Select App has been upgraded to be fully customizable. With the new software it is now possible to assign up to 2 different HDMI sources per installation, giving guests the option to connect their own device directly to the TV, or for example enabling access to a casting solution for guests to cast their own content to the TV.
Connect your Digital Signage via WiFi
Launched together with the new software is a new Digital Signage Player (DS Player), which includes WiFi, 2 HDMI outputs, and is 4K compliant.
With WiFi you now have the full freedom to place your digital signage screen wherever you prefer, without having to worry about available ethernet outlets.
With the dual parallel HDMI output, you can connect two screens to the same DS Player and save both installation hardware cost and time when updating your messages. This is a big benefit in areas where you have back-to-back screens showing the same content, and is frequently used in train stations, airports, and other public areas where the flow of people can come from several directions.
With 4K being implemented in more and more screens the new DS Player has also been upgraded to be 4K compliant, supporting 4K graphics giving you the flexibility to use screens with both new and older technologies.
The new DS Player is available in two versions — with or without PoE. If your digital signage is placed where an ethernet cable is available and your switch supports PoE, the DS player with PoE can be powered via the ethernet cable, reducing the need for additional power outlets.

“TRIAX headends are the truest expression of our values of reliability and innovation. We’re proud to be headend experts, devoting ourselves to their development for over 20 years. We are excited to see our vision for this new platform really come to life with this second wave of new versions and features.

Additional input types and output modulations
Newly launched versions of the TDcH compact headend make it possible to choose between QAM and COFDM modulation in the software during setup.
A satellite-only configuration is equipped with 4 DVB-S2X inputs distributed to 16 tuners, 16 QAM or COFDM modulators and 8 CI slots. A free-to-air only version is also available.
A new satellite, terrestrial and cable configuration is available with 4 DVB-S2X inputs distributed to 16 tuners, 1 DVB-T2/C input distributed to 6 tuners, 16 QAM or COFDM modulators and 8 CI slots.
The TDcH compact headend is built for both wall mounting and 19″ racks. Each model stands just 90mm tall and the new integrated SCR multiswitch is an additional space-saving benefit.
Advanced functionalities via complimentary software updates
“In the complimentary software update we have not only included popular functions from the high-end TDX headend like Multiplexing via IP pool technology, PID and EPG management, but also new features like the ability to handle multilingual services. In September, a further software update will upgrade all models to include an integrated SCR multiswitch for a time-, cost- and space saving installation”
Dietmar Rauch, Headend Product Manager at TRIAX
The TDcH compact headend has been developed from the ground up at TRIAX’s R&D base in Denmark. It joins the TDH 800 modular and TDX scalable headends in the TRIAX headend portfolio, which has sold over 24,000 units in the last decade alone.

Introducing the TRIAX Network Analyser
Free software for successful EoC projects and increased customer satisfaction
TRIAX Ethernet over Coax (EoC) is now even easier with the new TRIAX Network Analyser software, available as a complimentary download from today.
- Optimal IP over coax: increase project success and customer satisfaction
- Perform detailed pre-qualification and documentation of the coax network
- No more surprises: address potential disturbances, identify need for filters before installation
- Free software download from TRIAX
- Free online training: sign up to one of our webinars below
- TRIAX EoC: professional gigaspeed IP over coax
The details
An EoC Controller*, EoC Endpoint, a laptop and the TRIAX Network Analyser are all you need on-site to carry out either a full network analysis or strategic tests at selected points.
The tool displays any signal disturbances and the data capacity at a specific endpoint location.
Since EoC operates in the frequency range from 0-200 MHz, one of challenges could be that some TV services are positioned in this range.
TRIAX Network Analyser reveals this with disturbances in the given frequency range.
These are indicated with the blue line in this example screenshot, the spikes being analogue signals and the flatter peaks digital services.
Detailed documentation with data and screenshots can be produced, for future troubleshooting use or for peace of mind when handing a project over to your customer.
*TRIAX Network Analyser is compatible with EoC controller B versions and later.
