<p><strong>Dual Hot Swap PSU</strong><br />
The MX8400 has been available with a single fixed PSU. Ericsson is introducing a new MX8400 chassis that supports a dual hot swap power supply.</p>
<p>
Two versions of the MX8400 chassis are available. Care should be taken to ensure that the right part number is it will not be possible to upgrade from one chassis type to another:</p>
<ul>
<li>MX8400/BAS – Original chassis with a fixed single PSU</li>
<li>MX8400/BAS/DPS – New chassis that supports dual hot swap PSU; comes with one PSU fitted.</li>
</ul>
<p>An optional second power supply (MX8400/HWO/DPS) is required to turn the MX8400/BAS/DPS chassis into a hot swap PSU unit.</p>
<p>
Whether the original chassis or the one with dual power supply is used, the multiplexing functionality as well as the number of option slots available between the two chassis are identical.</p>
<p><strong>BISS</strong><br />
MX8400 has supported DVB CSA since its release in July 2007 and is integrated with a number of difference DVB CSA vendors.</p>
<p>Ericsson’s MX8400 now supports BISS encryption as well as DVB CSA. It is possible to have both these enabled on the MX8400 simultaneously. Furthermore it is possible to scramble services within a single transport stream with either BISS or DVB CSA. However it is not possible to scramble a service within a transport stream with both DVB CSA and BISS.</p>
<p>BISS can be enabled on the MX8400 by application of the appropriate licenses.</p>

<p>Broadcasters and Programmers are continually looking to take advantage of technological advances that reduce their distribution costs. MPEG-4 AVC compression in conjunction with DVB-S2 satellite transmission is the perfect combination to achieve such transmission efficiency gains. However, many TV systems are locked into MPEG-2 technology for the foreseeable future by the deployed set-top box population.</p>
<p>
The RX8252 Program Transcoder offers a high level of transcode density and sophistication. The RX8252 can be configured to enable up to 6 transcodes of any combination of HD to HD, HD to SD and SD to SD transcoding &#8211; allowing the programmer to address all tiers of service providers. In addition to video processing the RX8252 Program Transcoder also provides an unsurpassed level of flexibility in its network interfacing through a choice of service filtering and PID remapping capabilities.</p>
<p>
Program content delivered over satellite is securely protected through the RX8252 Program Transcoder’s conditional access capabilities. The RX8252 is fully integrated to provide compatibility with DVB Common Interface and BISS CA. Conditional access and control ability can be further enhanced by employing Director by Ericsson &#8211; a sophisticated CA and receiver population control and management system.</p>
<h3>RX8252 Product Overview</h3>

<p>The CXU offers Abis/Ater optimization, 2G/3G aggregation, DCME voice trunking optimization, TDM Pseudowire, all over IP, Frame Relay or MLPPP protocol support.</p>
<p>The CX-U products support digital fractional T1/E1, high-speed serial and Ethernet network interfaces with a choice of protocols (Frame Relay, IP/MLPPP) and multiple network backup options. Designed with the utmost reliability in mind, it can support an extended temperature range. Line Bypass and optional 100 ms 1+1 hot standby redundancy without service interruption are also available for ultimate availability in challenging remote locations.</p>
<p>The CX-U family is comprised of four products: CX-U 1010, CX-U 1220, CX-U 1240 and CX-U 1280, which can be used in stand-alone mode of operation at hubs or aggregation points, or in conjunction with the CX-U devices located at the remote cell sites.</p>
<p>Based on GSM Abis traffic optimization and aggregation using statistical multiplexing, Memotec’s RAN Optimizer delivers up to 3:1 bandwidth reduction. The RAN Optimizer transparently connects between the BTS/BSC and the transmission network facility, reducing the amount of backhaul bandwidth required to support cellular services over constrained links, such as satellite.</p>
