SASKATOON, Saskatchewan, Canada -- VCom Inc. has introduced its CableVista I edge decoder, targeted at all-digital simulcast networks. The new decoder helps service providers speed up the development of an all-digital network by allowing them to build a digital backbone while continuing to provide analog services to their customers, according to the company. By using the CableVista I in their all-digital network, service providers can also free up bandwidth to offer additional digital video services such as VOD and HDTV.

The CableVista I accepts MPEG-2 transport streams
