Cisco D9096 Dual-channel 10-bit 4:2:2 AVC Encoder with 1080p60 Support

The Cisco D9096 also supports MPEG-2 and AVC-I codecs, making it a highly complementary product to the Cisco Digital Content Manager Gateway (DCM-G) for fixed-contribution applications that need to support a variety of codecs, bitrates, and use cases. The D9096 can encode video at up to 120 Mbps, which is suitable for the highest-bitrate-compressed applications.

Along with a high-quality and versatile video encoding engine, the D9096 offers a comprehensive audio encoding feature set, with support for Dolby E decoding, and Dolby Digital and Digital Plus encoding. The IP output allows the user to stream from any physical port, including the management port, and set up a variety of redundancy schemes.

The Cisco D9096 front panel has an alphanumeric keypad and assignable shortcut keys, which streamline operations when a web browser is not available. A thin film transistor (TFT) display on the front panel shows the input video and format. An intuitive web interface meets all operational expectations, and the Cisco ROSA® Video Services Manager (VSM) offers management, monitoring, and redundancy for the D9096.
