What is BS EN 60728-7-1- Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services about?
BS EN 60728 discusses cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services. BS EN 60728-7-1 belongs to BS EN 60728 multi-series and discusses hybrid Fibre Coax Outside Plant Status Monitoring. Physical (PHY) Layer Specification.
BS EN 60728-7-1 specifies requirements for The Hybrid Fibre Coax (HFC) Outside Plant (OSP) Physical (PHY) Layer Specification and is part of the series of specifications developed by the Hybrid Management Sub-Layer (HMS) subcommittee under the SCTE.
Note: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is not specified in BS EN 60728-7-1 and is left to the vendor to ensure compliance with local EMC regulatory requirements. Other than operating temperature, physical parameters such as shock, vibration, humidity, etc., are also not specified and left to the vendor’s discretion.
Who is BS EN 60728-7-1 - Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services for?
BS EN 60728-7-1 on cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services is useful for:
- Cable manufactures
- Television service providers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use BS EN 60728-7-1 - Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services?
The purpose of the HMS specification is to support the design and implementation of interoperable management systems for evolving HFC cable networks. The HMS Physical (PHY) Layer Specification describes the physical layer portion of the protocol stack used for communication between HMS-compliant transponders interfacing to managed outside plant network elements (NE) and a centralized head-end element (HE).
BS EN 60728-7-1 provides you with the PHY layer requirements that must be implemented by all Type 2 and Type 3 compliant OSP HMS transponders on the HFC plant and the controlling equipment in the head-end. BS EN 60728-7-1 helps you with the design and implementation of interoperable management systems for evolving HFC cable networks.
