Receiver Card
AG 2600 openGear
®
Module
OVERVIEW
The AG 2600 receiver card leverages the DVB-S2, IP,
8VSB/QAM-B, DVB-T/T2/C/C2/ISDB-T, dual DVB-
CI, and ASI designs from Sencore’s newest receiver
decoder cards to provide a cost effective multi-
channel reception and descrambling platform.
The card integrates into the industry-standard
2RU openGear
®
OG-3 frame, supporting up to
10 receiver/descrambler pairs per chassis. The
AG 2600 is also congurable without the DVB-CI
option, and with an optional BISS descrambling
support, so it can be matched to any reception
infrastructure.
The product is ideal for providing satellite or
terrestrial feeds for IP network distribution or
integrated transcode infrastructure. Optional PID
ltering on the IP output can generate up to 10
MPTS or SPTS outputs from an MPTS input.
Finally, the receiver can be congured with ASI
and IP interfaces only for simple turn-around,
descrambling, and ltering operations.
Hot swappable cards provide for effortless system
expansion, while full SNMP and syslog interfaces
and an HTTP-based API support quick and
easy integration into multichannel systems. For
individual operators, the product features an easy
to use web GUI that will be immediately familiar to
users of previous Sencore IRDs.
• Extensive automation support via SNMP status,
conguration, and traps, HTTP-based APIs, and Syslog
• Shared software and feature-set with Sencore 1RU
receivers ensure reliability and interoperability
• Built-in ASI and IP I/O for maximum exibility
• Available RF and descrambling modules:
√ DVB-S/S2 Interface with Optional Dual DVB-CI
√ DVB-T/T2/C/C2/ISDB-T Interface
√ 8VSB/QAM-B Receiver Designed for A74
√ Codecs auto-detected and switchable on-the-y
• Failover between any two inputs
• Dual, mirrored TS over IP transmission
• Built-in BISS Mode 1, Mode E, and Multi-key
• Intuitive, straightforward web interface
• Satellite Reception and Descrambling
Receive up to ten transponders in 2RU and descramble
via dual DVB-CI slots or BISS 1/E. Generate IP and ASI
outputs of the full transport stream or a ltered subset.
• Ingest Feeds for Linear OTT Transcoding
Generate up to 10 SPTS multicasts from an incoming
distribution feed for downstream, server-based
transcoding systems.
• Capture Local Terrestrial Channels for Backhaul
Receive 8VSB signals and output as IP for ber backhaul
to a remote site. Filter the broadcast stream to transmit
only HD or SD services.
• Convert between ASI and IP
Connect old and new broadcast equipment while
performing simple transport manipulation such as
ltering or descrambling.
