RGB Networks Announces Cable Industry’s Highest Density Edge QAM

Scalable, Multi-Service Edge QAM Modulation and Upconverion


		One rack unit chassis supports up to 128 QAM channels in a 6 MHz channel system saving nearly ten times the rack space and power consumed by low density solutions.


		Supports the ability to multiplex up to 1280 programs in one rack unit, enabling operators to efficiently deploy scalable, personalized digital video services in switched and on-demand environments.


		Truly scalable design enables operators to introduce new services with lower capital expenditure and enjoy a flexible “pay-as-you-grow” model based on the number of QAM channels needed for current digital video service deployments.


		Offers RGB’s pioneering full redundancy options, including automatic failover, hot-swappable 1:1 chassis redundancy, and service level and Gigabit Ethernet port redundancy.


		Based on RGB’s Video Intelligence Architecture™ (VIA), dramatically lowers the cost of delivering advanced services in digital video environments.
