§1 Introduction §1.1 Functionality LAVISION-868FTA is a new generation ofRF-to-IP adapter, which can receive and demodulate eight channels of DVB-S/S2,DVB-C and ISDB RF input signals, and then multiplex, scramble and process it with channel coding. It adopts our newly developed functions such as “Module Management”, device scrambling, and channel modulation.
The ALARM LED will indicate warning messages of the device, if exists, see section §3.3 for details. Fig.1 Front Panel View of LaVision-868FTA §1.4 Rear Panel As shown in figure 2, the rear panel of LAVISION-868FTAconsists of one power supply connector, one power switch, one management port, eight RF input ports, one eight IP output ports, and a grounding point.
§1.5 Typical Application Architecture Fig.3 System Application Block Diagram of LAVISION-868FTA LAVISION-868FTA receives the standard DTV TS, please refer to section §3.3 for the format of TS. The following devices may be able to provide input signal to LAVISION-868FTA 1. Satellite receiving antenna and MMDS down converter.
10Gbps; the maximum data exchange speed of each port must be higher than 1000Mbps. The switch for the LAVISION-868FTA and the managing workstation should be a 100M or gigabit switch, the maximum data exchange speed of each port must be higher than 40Mbps. Normally, It can be the same switch of data output,the two ports need to be configured to different VLANs.
