The MUX-2A-QAM is designed to allow CATV operators to multiplex two input sources in ASI format to a
single QAM output channel for delivery over a standard coaxial distribution network.
The MUX-2A-QAM accepts up to two (2) ASI inputs and aggregates them onto one QAM RF output in the
54-864 MHz range. The MUX-2A-QAM provides the capability to filter program streams and to assign
major/minor or a single 4 digit channel number to each.
The MUX-2A-QAM also provides Emergency Alert System (EAS) program switching through a third ASI
input and terminal block contacts. The EAS input source can be shared among multiple MUX-2A-QAM
units by looping it from one to another unit without the need for external splitting and amplification.
Features
• Supports MPEG-2 Transport Stream Tables: PAT, PMT, MGT, RRT, STT, & VCT
• Re-maps duplicate PIDs, Program Numbers, and Minor Channel Numbers
• Allows sharing of the EAS input source among multiple units
• User-defined major/minor or 4-digit CATV virtual channels
• User-defined channel names
• EAS input replaces up to 12 program streams
• Supports PID filtering & PSIP re-assignment
• Provides QAM 256 Output at 38.8 Mbps
• Accepts ASI input as EAS input source
• User-defined QAM Output Parameters

Specifications
Connectors
ASI: 2 x BNC Female
Emergency Alert System (EAS): 1 x BNC Female
ASI
Standard: DVB-ASI; EN 50083-9 (MPTS/SPTS)
Transport Range: 270 Mbps
Level Range: 720 to 950 mVpp (800 mVpp nominal)
Impedance: 75 Ω
Emergency Alert System
Standard: DVB-ASI; EN 50083-9 (SPTS)
Transport Rate: Single program at 3 Mbps (based upon 12
programs using 256 QAM output.) Higher data
rates can be used with a lower number of output
programs as to not exceed the maximum allowable
bit rate on the QAM output channel.
NOTE: The EAS program (when triggered) is
multiplied by the number of output programs. A 3
Mbps EAS video file on 12 programs therefore
equals 36 Mbps. This bit rate is acceptable when
using 256 QAM that has a maximum of 38.8 Mbps.
Level Range: 720 to 950 mVpp (800 mVpp nominal)
Impedance: 75 Ω
Connector: 1x “F” Female
QAM Modulation Modes: 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1024
DVB Symbol Rate: Variable; 1 to 7 MSymbols/sec (MBaud)
