Overview
The Cisco D9865 Satellite Receiver is designed for satellite content distribution and it targets the
broadcast, business TV, private networks, and SMATV environment. The receiver offers the ability to
receive digitally encrypted video, audio, VBI, and data. It provides a cost-effective, variable-rate
solution to transition existing DVB-S/MPEG-2 services to DVB-S2/MPEG-4. Additional features
include IP data and RS-232 utility data (D9865D only).
The unit is set up via the on-screen display menu, using a handheld infrared remote control, or navigation
keys on the front panel of the receiver. The unit can also be set up and monitored using the embedded
Web interface (D9865D only). User-editable presets are provided for quick re-tuning to other broadcasts.
The receiver also supports SNMP control via the Ethernet port as an option (D9865D only).
Free-to-air Reception
This receiver is capable of receiving a DVB/MPEG compliant free-to-air broadcast.
Secured Broadcast Reception
Supporting the PowerVu conditional access with DES or DVB descrambling, or with DVB Conditional
Access Module (CAM) based DVB CA systems, this receiver can be used to receive secured corporate
communication of video, audio, and data broadcast. It can also be used for secured delivery of TV
programming to hotels, MDUs, homes, and commercial establishments such as restaurants and stores.
Data Outputs (D9865D only)
Data outputs can be used for distribution of electronic documents, such as price lists and video files.
Utility data (RS-232) can be used for smaller file transfer at a slower speed. DVB MPE IP data via an
Ethernet interface allows for connection to a local area network for larger file transfer or communication
with multiple network clients.
