Encoder Description
The Electra 9200 is a single rack-unit (1-RU) encoder with multi-resolution, multi-standard,
multi-profile, multi-service, and multi-channel capabilities. The high-performance Electra
9200 significantly enhances bandwidth efficiency and provides up to four standard definition
(SD) or high definition (HD) channels of superior quality, constant bit-rate (CBR), or variable
bit-rate (VBR) video using either MPEG-2 or AVC encoding.
The Electra 9200 has the following basic configuration:
n
AC or DC Power and Fuse
n
Up to four audio/video compression boards
n
Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet output ports
n
Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet input ports
n
Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet management ports on the rear panel
n
One 10/100 Mbps Ethernet test port on the front panel
n
Fault Relay/GPI port
n
One serial data port
n
Video Lock, Fault and Locator LEDs
The Electra 9200 accepts these optional components:
n
IOM-RAC2, AHC-RAC, or AHC-561 audio modules
n
Dual power supply—provides power input redundancy (ELC-9200D chassis only)
n
FLEX decoding module — up to two FLEX-1 Modules per chassis
n
RF (8VSB) input module
n
ASI (input and output) module

The Electra 9200 encoder operates as part of a video delivery network that includes multiple
encoders, transcoders, and multiplexers. The encoder operates within an ASI or IP
environment, allowing flexible network architectures. In an IP environment, encoders and
multiplexers do not need to be in the same physical location.
