Analog modulators from Scientific Atlanta, a Cisco company, help North American cable network operators convert baseband audio and video signals into network-ready RF output signals. Capabilities of modulators in this series include:
Built-in intelligence, which allows remote control of important parameters
The ability to combine multiple agile channels into a single headend
Excellent ease of installation in new and existing broadband systems
The ability to manage all activities between application modules
Support of external monitoring and control functionality
Significant space savings with a convenient size and form factor
Power savings with an ASIC-based upconverter that consumes about half the power of traditional upconverter circuits
Outstanding RF performance and the ability to tune from 50-870 MHz in a single device
Superb stereo separation and distortion correction
No need to calibrate the BTSC signal, thanks to a digitally generated audio subcarrier
These products are ideal in Cable TV distribution systems where a combination of high reliability, low maintenance and excellent price/performance ratio are a priority.
