Overview
DMB-9581E Encoder/Modulator is a 1U rack‑mount integrated unit that combines H.264 video encoding, multiplexing, and RF modulation in a single chassis. It accepts configurable HDMI inputs (8, 12, 16, 20, or 24 channels), along with IP streams and 2 ASI inputs, and converts them into RF outputs compliant with DVB‑C, DVB‑T, ISDB‑T, or ATSC standards, operating across the 50–960 MHz frequency range. The device also provides 2 ASI ports and 1 IP port for outputting Transport Streams.

Features:
All-in-One Integrated Encoder, Modulator & Multiplexer – In addition to HDMI inputs, the unit supports 128× MPTS/SPTS streams via UDP/IP and 2× ASI inputs. RF output can be generated from any source: HDMI, IP, or ASI. The device also provides IP outputs including 127× SPTS over IP (UDP/RTP), 1–8× MPTS, and 2× independent ASI outputs. RF output is configurable as 4/8/16× RF carriers for DVB‑T/ATSC‑T/ISDB‑T/Tb/DTMB, or 16/32× RF carriers for DVB‑C. (Note: ISDB‑T RF output is limited to 1× ASI input and supports 2K mode only; 4K and 8K are not supported.)
Broad Signal Source Compatibility – Supports hybrid input configurations such as HDMI + Tuner (DVB‑S2/C/T2/ISDB‑T/ATSC), for example 16× HDMI + 8× programmable-frequency tuners.
Flexible Frequency Allocation – Offers 768 MHz of usable bandwidth, allowing dynamic assignment of frequency points within this range (when configured for 16× RF outputs).
Multi‑Carrier Configuration Options – Available in versions supporting 4/8/16 carriers for DVB‑T/C/ATSC/ISDB‑T, or 32× QAM carriers for DVB‑C, selected according to the required number of program channels.
