2 - Description
y The T.0X Series is a complete family of digital
cable headend products. These products
include satellite QPSK and 8PSK to QAM
transmodulators, universal modulators and
fiber optic transmitters/receivers, amplifiers,
and splitters. The T.0X family of products all fit
in a standard 19" rack chassis that contains a
power supply and room for 7 modules.
y Each of the T.0X Q/8PSK modules contain 2
completely independent transmodulators that
are capable of being fed from either the same
or different sources with output frequencies
able to be set independently across the entire
range in order to provide maximum flexibility.
y The entire transponder's multiplex is converted
to a single QAM channel so all content
regardless of whether it is video or music,
MPEG2 or MPEG4, SD or HD, encrypted or not,
will be output unaltered eliminating the need
for additional costly encoding or encryption
equipment in the headend.
y Additionally, both inputs and outputs can
be daisy-chained with the input/output of a
module being added to the input/output of
all the preceding modules thus eliminating the
need for RF splitters and combiners.
y Configuration and Control of the modules
can either be done through the handheld
controller or from any Internet connection with
the use of the CDC headend controller module.
The remote control of the system provides two
easy to use options with the TSuite computer
application or through any internet browser for
maximum customer choice.
3 - Main features
y TWIN modules (two independent tuners
per module) allowing up to 14 transcoded
transponders/channels per chassis.
y User friendly interface allowing simple selection
of which satellite transponder is output on
which QAM channel including a decoded view
of the satellite tables, output channel mode,
and DISH Network
installation mode.
TM
y Two completely independent and fully agile
outputs from 57 to 999 MHz (EIA Ch. 2-158) for
easier organization of wider-than-6MHz QAM
carriers.
y Input switching matrix allows for either of the
two inputs to be routed to either demodulator
including either one of the two inputs routed to
both of the demodulators simultaneously.
y Up to 1024QAM output capability.
y Remotely upgradeable firmware allows for
future updates without having to visit the
headend.
y Carrier wave and null packets output mode for
easy system balancing without an input signal
or without a digital meter.
y Extensive monitoring information for easy
troubleshooting (current and lowest input
SNR, current and highest temperature reached,
number of lock loss conditions over a period of
time, etc.) with LED indicators on the front of
the unit.
y Back-lit LCD display handheld programmer or
TSuite PC application options for both on-site
and remote configuration and troubleshooting.
y Copy configurations from one module to
another with the handheld programmer for fast
and easy module swaps (copy/paste).
y Web

configuration
management using the CDC system, including
"DISH mode" for easy set-up.
Input/Output daisy-chain architecture to avoid
y
external splitters/ combiners.
y High performance, MER>40dB over the full
frequency range of 57-999MHz.
y High output level, greater than 38 dBmV with
over 20dB of attenuation margin for easy
balance and integration.
