T-VIPS CP560

The T-VIPS CP560 is a DVB-T2 Gateway. It provides a central point of control for DVB-T2 and T2Lite networks. The CP560 encapsulates the transport stream into the DVB-T2 Modulator Interface. The T2-MI also controls the modulator parameters and provides the accurate timing and rate control required in a Single Frequency Network (SFN). The CP560 provides flexible interfacing with ASI or IP inputs, as well as T2-MI outputs over ASI and IP. It encapsulates MPEG Transport Streams in Physical Layer Pipe (single and multi-PLP).

About

With this connector, you can monitor and configure the T-VIPS CP560 device, using an SNMP connection.

Installation and configuration

Creation

This connector uses an SNMP connection and requires the following input during element creation:

SNMP CONNECTION:
