The Pico Macom DSP806 is a frequency agile, microprocessor-controlled, professional re-broadcast grade double-heterodyne channel processor that converts one 6MHz Digital (ATSC, 8VSB, 64QAM) or Analog (NTSC) channel to a different frequency without need to demodulate and re-modulate the signal.
Front panel push-button controls enable simple input and output channel selection. The unit uses state-of-the-art high stability phase-locked-loop circuitry for optimum data handling and channel relocation. The DSP806 provides a rear panel external IF loop allowing this unit to be used as a digital up-converter or down-converter in CMTS systems. The Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) IF filtering provides highly selective frequency cut off at band edges for superior adjacent channel performance even in the most crowded systems. The DSP806 unique broad input AGC design delivers consistently high quality picture even at
extremely low input levels. The microprocessor's non-volatile memory preserves input and output channel identification guaranteeing proper reset when power is restored. The DSP806 high frequency and extremely high accuracy phase-locked loop oscillators enable the unit to meet the frequency offset and stability
requirements of FCC Docket 21006. Pico Macom backs up this product with its industry leading 5-year limited warranty.
