RGB Dynamic Bandwidth Manager (DBM)

RGB's ultra high density Dynamic Bandwidth Manager (DBM) is the industry's only low-latency, real-time video processing solution for interactive, personalized architectures such as video-on-demand (VOD) and switched digital video (SDV). Based on RGB's Video Intelligence ArchitectureTM (VIA), the DBM enables cable operators to deliver 50% more programming on their existing network without costly network re-architecture and upgrades. The flexible, scalable and modular one rack unit platform offers high density VOD and SDV bandwidth optimization, enables quick ‘trick play' functions and works transparently with existing servers, resource managers, modulators and set-top boxes.

High-Density, Real-Time VOD and SDV Bandwidth Optimization

Provides up to 50% improvement in bandwidth efficiency for video-on-demand and switched digital video applications.

Integrated bulk encryption support simplifies the VOD architecture.

Real-time processing eliminates the need for costly and operationally complex pre-processing, media staging and integration.

Low-latency video processing delivers full ‘trick-play' agility.

Offers seamless integration with VOD servers, session resource managers and edge QAMs for easy, plug-and-play deployment.

What people are saying:

“Cable TV's biggest competitive advantage over satellite is their ability to provide individual video streams to subscribers, using Gigabit Ethernet in their headends and their HFC distribution systems. RGB Networks' Video Intelligence Architecture promises higher density and lower cost-per-stream.”
