DTA Support Overview
The Digital Terminal Adapter (DTA) is a device which allows digital, MPEG-2 standard
definition transports to be decoded and remodulated as NTSC analog signals intended
for display on analog-only display devices. DTA video services are configured as manual
routes, with a configured multicast joined to retrieve in-band messages for insertion.
Note: The current APEX1000 firmware release does NOT include support for DTA
content protection. This feature will be included in a future release.
The APEX inserts DTA In-Band Messages (CAT and EMM) in each DTA-enabled OTS,
and updates the PAT to include a reference to the Network PID. The Network PID
contains the in-band Channel map and service information for DTA set-top boxes.
