CHP-2RRXR-30-S Dual Return Path Receiver
The CHP Dual Return Path Receiver is an integral part of a flexible return path system. Designed to operate as either a stand‐alone or redundant module, the CHP Dual Receiver allows operators to increase their network capacity while reducing operational power. With support for up to 300 MHz of return bandwidth, the CHP Dual Receiver is an ideal choice for supporting future DOCSIS 3.1 band splits without out having to upgrade receivers.
The CHP Dual Return Path Receiver accepts two optical inputs into a single‐wide module, which supports up to 20 receivers in a single 2RU CHP chassis and up to 400 receivers in a standard 40RU rack. As operators add bandwidth to their networks, the CHP Dual Receiver can help them to achieve a migration path to DOCSIS 3.1 bandwidth. There is a front or rear fiber SC/APC connector option for the CHP Dual Return Path Receiver.
The CHP Dual Receiver is available in both redundant and non‐redundant configurations. The redundant model protects both the optical path and vital hardware for VoIP, business data services, and other critical applications. For additional protection, the redundant model’s integral optical and RF switches alternate between diverse paths when the receiver detects an optical path module hardware fault. In these instances, switch time is less than 50 milliseconds. Operators can pair redundant and nonredundant modules in either the same CHP chassis or in a spare chassis up to 6 meters away.
The CHP Dual Receiver offers high RF output with excellent power efficiency, typically consuming less than 3 Watts per RF channel.
The modules are hot‐swappable to ensure minimal loss of uptime. The receiver’s Craft Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides local monitoring, configuration control, and firmware downloads, while the System Management Module (SMM) provides local and remote IP access to the Craft GUI, firmware downloads, and the SNMP HMS interface.
Automatic Gain Control allows for user to set the RF output level and have a window of optical input range to maintain the set output.
The AVP 2000 Contribution Encoder is the basis for the most
efficient video compression engines available to the broadcast market.
The platform itself is designed to address both the need for density with up to six option slots and the need for high resilience by making all the option slots hot swappable and the addition of a dual PSU version of the chassis. A standard IP interface and a wide range of separate I/O options provide interfacing to multiple hybrid networks concurrently. The AVP 2000 allows in-field serviceability, portability and system reconfiguration to address the widest range of C&D applications.
The AVP 2000 Contribution Encoder supports MediaKind’s range of encoder modules.
The CE-HEVC encoder module provides support for HEVC and MPEG-4 AVC video compression. Each module can encode a single UHD (4k) video service or up to 4 HD video services. It supports 4:2:2 or 4:2:0, 8 or 10-bit video, and can provide low and super low end to end latency encoding modes.
The CE-xA/A encoder module provide high quality MPEG-4 AVC or MPEG-2 video compression for standard definition and high definition video.
The CE-aA/A encoder module provide high quality MPEG-4 AVC or MPEG-2 of 4:2:0 8-bit video in a compact form factor.
The CE-aJ2K encoder modules provide JPEG-2000 video compression capability.
So the AVP 2000 Contribution Encoder pushes encoding efficiency, serviceability and upgradeability to new levels of excellence.
