General description
DRD 700 is an DVB-Quad receiver. He can be user defined equiped with 2 Twin DVB frontend boards
(DVB-S/S2, DVB-T/C or DVB-T/T2). The four independent MPEG-2/MPEG-4 SD/HD input signals are
demodulated, descrambled and are available as 4x2 ASI interfaces.
For the descrambling, DRD 700 has four DVB-CI slots, which enables appropriate CAM modules to decode
the complete transport stream. Multidecryption is available by default.
The DVB-S/S2 twin frontends allows the receiving and demultiplexing of transport streams regarding
EN 302307 Annex H.2. By using two twin frontends four transport streams can be provided at the ASI
interfaces. In total there exist 4 x 2 ASI output interfaces, two interfaces provide the same signal.
Max. four transport streams as 4 x MPTS can be provided by the IP-GbE-SFP interface. In addition the
DRD700 is able to provide 60 x SPTS data streams, in total 64 transport stream channels are available
via IP interface.
Optionally the IP-GbE-SFP interface can be used as IP input. For redundancy applications the second IP-
GbE-SFP interface is available. For both options a license key is necessary.
An additional option is Processing, inclusive Service- and PIF filtering as well as multiplexing of max. four
new transport streams from the input signals with table generation.
The device is operated locally, either via a LCD display and an additional wheel or with the implemented
web server via a web browser. A SNMP agent with the corresponding MIB is built in for the integration in
a network management system. The device is controlled via a separate LAN connection, which has a
separate IP address; thus, the device can also be accessed from a distance.
The basic version of the DRD 700 comprises:
2 internal slots for Twin-DVB-x frontend boards
2 x ASI input
4 x 2 x ASI output
4 DVB common interface for the CAM modules
2 x IP-GbE SFP interface for IP input or IP streaming
oDual configured for signal redundancy
oSFP-interfaces to 100/1000BaseT Half-/Fullduplex manuell configurable
10/100 Mbit LAN interface for web browser and SNMP
Isolated / potential-free switching contacts
LCD display with wheel and status LEDs
2 Wide-range power supply units (Redundancy)
The basic device can be extended with additional hardware / software options:
DVB-S/DVB-S2 Frontends (with LNB supply and 22kHz switch signal) design, SCPC filter
DVB-S/DVB-S2 Twin-16APSK-/32APSK-Frontends, SCPC filter
DVB-T/C Frontend
DVB-T/T2 Frontend
IP Frontend (Gigabit-Ethernet) with electric / optical SFP module
Service filter, PID filter
NDS CA Decryption

Input
Different DVB Input Frontends can be implemented.
ASI interface
There are 4 x 2 equivalent ASI outputs on the back side of the device. If a fault occurs, the ASI operating
outputs can be switched off. Depending upon the (software) configuration and option, the originally received
TS or the TS with one or more descrambled services can be maintained on the ASI outputs.
As a standard, two ASI inputs are provided on the back side of the device. If an additional frontend is
implemented, it is possible to switch between the ASI and frontend input.
Wide-range power supply unit:
DRD 700 has two wide-range power supply units for redundancy purposes. A failure of a power supply will
be indicated The input voltage range is 100V AC – 240V AC. In the event of an operational disturbance or a
fault in the mains supply the configuration is stored in a non-volatile memory. Upon restart the operation
automatically continues with the last setting.
Test Equipment
Devices delivered for demonstration and test purposes might have a limited duration of functionality. After
exceeding the test period the main functions are shut off.

Input
Input allows the selection of the sources of the transport stream for further processing. The source of the
transport streams can be either ASI, IP or different DVB frontends if assembled. A click on the particular
transport stream number gives more status information about selected source .
IP Input (option):
The input source “IP” is accessible if this option is activated. IP 2 is configurable if the redundancy option is
activated and a SFP modul is inserted.
Max. four MPTS/SPTS transport streams can be received via IP input. By using IGMPv.3 the source port IP
address can be specified (SSM: Source Specific Multicast).
Standard data protocol is UDP. The selected data protocol must correspond to the IP source protocol! In the
same manner the IP address and the port channel of the source must match. Multicast is possible by
selecting the corresponding IP addresses. Addresses in the range 225.x.x.x to 232.x.x.x and 234.x.x.x to
238.x.x.x are reserved for Multicast transfer (one source, multiple recipients).

Input-DVB-S/S2 (Option)
The selection of the input source DVB-S/S2 will show the following configuration menu, where you can
configure the parameters required for DVB-S/DVB-S2. Click Set to transfer the configured data to the
device. By this the SAT-ZF DVB-S/S2 signal is selected as the input signal. ASI and IP Input are disabled.
The symbol rate must be precisely specified. By pre-selecting the DVB-S or DVB-S2 mode the tuning
procedure of the DRD 700 is accelerated. However the usual mode of operation is AUTOMATIC.
The menu items 'LNB Voltage' and 'LNB 22 kHz Tone' can be configured accordingly.
The SCPC mode should be enabled if a narrow-band transport stream (< approx. 5 Msps) has to be received
and if there are several narrow-band transport stream on the transponder at the same time. By entering the
transport stream ID (SCPC TSID) it is ensured that the DRD 700 tunes on the selected transport stream.
The TSID must be entered in hexa-decimal format.
