The Cisco PowerVu® D9190 Conditional Access Manager (PCAM) is one of the core components of the PowerVu next-generation system. The Cisco® D9190 is used for encrypting services with Cisco PowerVu Conditional Access (PCA), and is designed for use with the Cisco Digital Content Manager (DCM) to provide a functional replacement for the PowerVu D9140 Advanced Multiplexer.
For network monitoring and control, the Cisco D9190 (Figures 1 and 2) is integrated with Cisco PowerVu Network Centre (PNC).

Chassis Overview
The D9190 chassis features dual-redundant and hot-swappable power supplies. It has the capacity to hold up to six modules. The chassis supports advanced internal common synchronization mechanisms that can be used to synchronize the various services being hosted. Dedicated management and auxiliary input ports are also provided for control system monitoring and communication. The PowerVu Conditional Access (CA) modules are field-replaceable to allow for fast service with minimum downtime. A contact-closure output is used to signal a major alarm to the control system when it is active.
Cisco PCA
The PCA module is used to encrypt entitlement control message (ECM) and entitlement management message (EMM) traffic and to communicate with a DCM using various Simulcrypt protocols. The PCA module has four 1000BASE-T Ethernet ports, one of which is used to communicate with the DCM Multiplexer.
