The SDI/DVB-ASI cards can interface either uncompressed serial digital video or DVB-ASI signals compressed MPEG-2 video (in a DVB-ASI format) to the DV6000 or DV6400 multiplexed • Pushbutton encoder datastream. Once encoded, the signals can be transported, along with any of the other sig- mode selection nal types that the DV interfaces (NTSC, PAL, IF, QAM, DS3, etc.), to matching decoders at one or more locations throughout a network. • Autosensing decoder mode selection Features • Transports full (uncompressed) 270Mbps standards-based signals including SMPTE 259M-C Serial Digital Interface (SDI), SMPTE 305M-98 Serial Data Transport Interface (SDTI), and ITU-R-601, 656-2 Video • Transparently passes primary and auxiliary data present in the SDI signal (including embedded audio signals) • Transports DVB-ASI signals containing up to the full payload of 213Mbps of MPEG-2 compressed video content • Optionally carries four additional uncompressed analog audio channels within the system overhead (not embedded into the SDI or DVB-ASI streams) • Remote monitoring and control through C-COR element management systems Access and Transport SDIDVBASI-AT-0305.fm Page 2 Thursday, March 10, 2005 1:30 PM SDI/DVB-ASI Interface Cards Application The SDI/DVB-ASI interface cards allow broadcasters, MSOs, and other network service providers the choice of transporting either uncompressed or compressed video signal formats through a single interface card set. As an uncompressed digital transport system, the DV6000/DV6400 system does not introduce compression-related latency, errors, or artifacts to the signals it transports. In addition, in SDI mode the SDI/DVB-ASI interface cards preserve all timing and control information that may be embedded within an SDI signal (SMPTE 259M-C and SMPTE 305M-98). These features enable the DV6000/DV6400 to provide transport of video in its purest video form and with a level of transparency in the transport essential for editing and post-production processing. MPEG-2 compression is increasingly being used to enable more efficient distribution of digital video content. The DVB-ASI interface serves as a standardized means to interconnect MPEG-2 information from multiple digital components—such as MPEG-2 encoders, QAM modulators, satellite receivers, MPEG-2 (re)multiplexers, and video servers—making it both conve- nient and cost-effective for broadcasters migrating toward digital television (DTV and HDTV) and for MSOs looking to provide video on demand (VOD) applications. By using the SDI/DVB-ASI cards, the DV6000/DV6400 can transport this compressed video content as DVB-ASI signals with content payloads of up to the signal maximum of 213Mbps. Using the DV6000 Universal Digital Transport System, up to eight SDI/DVB-ASI cards (8 SDI/DVB-ASI signals and 32 analog audio channels) can be housed in a single equipment shelf. Using the DV6408 equipment shelf, up to four SDI/DVB-ASI cards (4 SDI/DVB-ASI signals and 16 analog audio channels) can be housed. Once installed into the equipment shelf, the operator can select either SMPTE or DVB mode from the encoder front panel pushbutton, DV craft and control software, or the IMI-9000 Information & Monitoring System. All decoders receiving the encoder's timeslots will then auto-sense the encoder's mode, thus requiring no further setup. In addition, besides alarm notification via the previously mentioned software programs, nor- mally open and normally closed alarm contact closures are provided for each SDI/DVB-ASI card on the back of every equip- ment shelf.
