Hardware Compatibility Matrix for Cisco Remote PHY Device
 Note | The hardware components introduced in a given Cisco Remote PHY Device Software Release are supported in all subsequent releases unless otherwise specified. |
Note | The -PKEY suffix in the PID indicates units that enable the SCTE-55-2 Out-of-Band protocol support. |

Information About R-PHY Video Configuration
The controller profile specifies the RF channels that belong to this profile and their RF parameters. Profile can either be unicast or multicast.
Multicast profile is used for downstream sharing. Multiple Remote PHY Devices (RPDs) can be configured to receive the same downstream controller. The traffic is multicast to all RPDs configured to receive the downstream controller. Applications include Video on Demand (VOD), Switched Digital Video (SDV) and Broadcast Video.
There is one principal core interface, and up to four auxiliary core interfaces in the RPD configuration. Principal core specifies the DPIC interface with which RPD connects. Auxiliary cores specify external DPIC interfaces that can be used for downstream sharing. Auxiliary core is currently used for narrowcast video, broadcast video and out-of-band data signaling path (OOB) only.
How to Configure R-PHY Video
This section describes how to configure R-PHY video on Cisco cBR-8.
- Configuring Downstream Controller Profile
- Configuring RPD
- Configuring Downstream Sharing
- Configuring Video
Configuring Downstream Controller Profile
To configure the donwstream controller profile, use the example below:
Router# configure terminal Router(config)# cable depi multicast pool 20 Router(config-multicast-pool)# ip address 225.28.0.0 255.255.0.0 Router(config-multicast-pool)# exit Router(config)# cable downstream controller-profile 1 Router(config-controller-profile)# multicast-pool 20 Router(config-controller-profile)# rf-chan 0 15 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# type docsis Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# frequency 111000000 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# rf-output normal Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# qam-profile 1 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# docsis-channel-id 1 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# exit Router(config-controller-profile)# rf-chan 16 19 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# type video sync Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# frequency 699000000 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# rf-output normal Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# qam-profile 1 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# exit Router(config-controller-profile)# exit Router(config)# cable downstream controller-profile 2 Router(config-controller-profile)# multicast-pool 1 Router(config-controller-profile)# rf-chan 20 47 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# type video sync Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# frequency 231000000 Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# rf-output normal Router(config-prof-rf-chan)# qam-profile 4
In the above example,two profiles are configured, profile 1 is a mixed profile, profile 2 is a video only profile.
Configuring RPD
To configure the RPD to include the controller profile, follow the example below:
Router# configure terminal Router(config)# cable rpd RPD01 Router(config-rpd)# identifier 0004.9f31.0455 Router(config-rpd)# core-interface Te3/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# principal Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 3/0/0 profile 1 Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 3/0/1 profile 2 Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-us 0 upstream-cable 3/0/0 profile 1 Router(config-rpd-core)# exit Router(config-rpd)# core-interface te6/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 6/0/0 profile 2 Router(config-rpd-core)# exit Router(config-rpd)# r-dti 1 Router(config-rpd)# rpd-event profile 0
Configuring Downstream Sharing
Downstream sharing is used for multicast (MC) traffic. To configure downstream sharing, follow the example below:
Router# configure terminal Router(config)# cable rpd RPD01 Router(config-rpd)# core-interface Te3/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# principal Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 3/0/1 profile 2 Router(config-rpd-core)# exit Router(config-rpd)# exit Router(config)# cable rpd RPD02 Router(config-rpd)# core-interface te3/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# principal Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 3/0/1 profile 2 Router(config-rpd-core)# exit Router(config-rpd)# exit Router(config)# cable rpd RPD03 Router(config-rpd)# core-interface te6/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# principal Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 6/0/1 profile 3 Router(config-rpd-core)# exit Router(config-rpd)# core-interface te3/1/0 Router(config-rpd-core)# rpd-ds 0 downstream-cable 3/0/1 profile 2
Note | All RPDs in the same multicast group have the same controller and profile association. |
Configuring Video
To configure Video, see Cisco Converged Broadband Routers Video Configuration Guide for Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.5.1.
Example: R-PHY Video Configuration
The following example shows how to configure Remote-PHY video:
