Hi guys, I’m only considering using WOWZA products, our company has [hdmi modulators](http://questtel.com/item.php?id=1&product=21) and in my case I have direct access only to coax cable (DVB-C qam256) and UDP RJ-45 Ethernet cable, do WOWZA products support udp or coax inputs?

Wowza Streaming Engine can ingest MPEG-TS over UDP, which it appears the modulator you have linked to above does support. For steps on configuring WSE, follow the article here: [How to publish and play a live stream (MPEG-TS based encoder)](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-publish-and-play-a-live-stream-mpeg-ts-based-encoder%28MPEG-TS-based-encoder%29)
