The Cisco DCM Series D9900 Digital Content Manager MPEG Processor
The Cisco DCM Series D9900 Digital Content Manager MPEG Processor is a compact 2RU or 1RU platform
capable of processing a high number of MPEG video streams. The Cisco DCM Series MPEG Processor is the
next generation of intelligent headend processing equipment, a cost-effective solution that combines compactness
and flexibility. Based on our experience, the DCM Series D9900 processor brings operational and economic
benefits in MPEG processing applications. The optional built-in DVB scrambler allows easy integration with
several conditional access (CA) systems.
The Cisco ROSA Video Services Management Suite
The Cisco ROSA Video Services Management Suite provides a complete solution for end-to-end management of
digital platforms. It monitors, manages, and controls equipment and services throughout the network.
The ROSA system delivers major benefits to help you:
●
Reduce complexity: Intuitive GUI for rapid service configuration, service troubleshooting, and service
alarming, and on-screen network topology schematics help decrease configuration errors.
●
Increase uptime: Management of service redundancy through automated backup capabilities helps
reduce mean time to repair (MTTR) by providing a reroute or reconfigure service in the event of a device
failure or service interruption.
●
Decrease operating expenses: Extensive fault and alarm management make troubleshooting quick and
easy, and GUI helps reduce costly configuration errors.
●
Simplify operations: Dynamic reconfiguration keeps the network to run as scheduled. The system also
allows you to make manual changes to video or audio service profiles.
●
Evaluate proactively: Recording and analyzing the historical performance of the network extends the
mean time between failure (MTBF).
Reference Architecture for the Solution
To help ensure that you achieve high uptime, flexible management, and platform support, Cisco advises its
customers to work with solution that has a reference architecture. The reference architecture for the Cisco video
compression platform is fully tested in the lab and through its use by Cisco’s customer base.

presents the solution’s fully 1:1 redundant architecture, giving you full coverage for both minimized
failover times as well as full protection against failing devices, links, and interfaces.
