The document describes Scientific-Atlanta's Continuum DVP D9600 Advanced Headend Processor system. It includes the D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators which combine functions like re-multiplexing, transport stream processing, monitoring, and optional scrambling. The modulators support variable bit rates and QAM constellations for modulation and include features for transport stream filtering, monitoring, and dynamic PS/SI regeneration.

- 1. Headend Systems Continuum DVP™ D9600 Advanced Headend Processor Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators with Re-multiplexing and optional built-in scrambler Description The Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators with Re-multiplexing, which are part of the Continuum DVP™ D9600 Advanced Headend Processor family, are a new generation re-multiplexer and professional QAM modulators combining the best RF specification with re-multiplexing, extended transport stream (TS) processing and monitoring in a stackable 1 RU device. Blocking services, changing PSI/SI information, monitoring of the incoming signal and much more is now standard in every Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulator with Re-multiplexing. Re-multiplexing and excellent RF specifications are very important in every cable environment. But many times small changes have to be made to the signal prior to modulation. This can be as simple as inserting a new NIT table or blocking services and components, thus regenerating most of the SI-tables (including EIT table). The Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators with Re-multiplexing were designed to combine the high requirements of SI-processing together with high end QAM modulation. Also monitoring of the incoming signal is added. This includes most of the TR 101 290 errors, bit rate measurement on the incoming services and an interpreter PSI/SI viewer. The optional built-in scrambler allows easy integration with several leading Conditional Access (CA) Systems. Using several CA systems is possible through the Simulcrypt support. Furthermore, redundancy is supported in order to help minimize a system failure. The RF modulation of the Model D9638 Advanced QAM Modulator with Re-multiplexing supports a full range of variable bit rates, signal bandwidths and QAM constellations, while the output up-converter is fully agile allowing any output frequency. The Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators with Re-multiplexing have a graphical user interface based on Java technology. This creates a user friendly environment and limits the learning curve and training costs. Additionally, the QAM modulation parameters can be easily changed from the front. The unit fits into Scientific-Atlanta’s total management solutions, the ROSA™ Network Management System. This creates a high integration of the Model D9634 and D9638 Advanced QAM Modulators with Re-multiplexing into the complete digital solution.
