Creating the Inband BFS Carousel
After you define the BFS source, you must create the inband data carousel for the
BFS source. The BFS uses data carousels to send the files that tell the DHCT how to
properly run a specific application, such as xOD. Carousels make the information
available to all DHCTs in the system. However, only those DHCTs specifically
authorized and looking for the information will receive it.
An inband carousel sends data files through the BFS QAM modulator to the DHCTs
An inband carousel sends data files through the BFS QAM modulator to the DHCTs
in your system at a rate of at least 27 megabits per second (Mbps).
