¹ A-model values refer to the documented 2026 IGS-900A/IGS-924A revision: 128 SPTS total (64 per DATA port), Dynamic PMT and EIT/EPG demultiplexing; no MPTS IP output. A-model capacities and software features must not be assumed for C/S variants. A-model links open their shared family product pages.
² Standard-model output limits vary across published revisions. Confirm the IGS-900 SPTS/MPTS limits and the IGS-924 MPTS limit for the hardware and firmware being ordered. “Not specified” does not mean “not supported”.
SPTS = Single Program Transport Stream; MPTS = Multi Program Transport Stream. Tuner count is not TV channel count. Stream counts remain subject to available services and bitrate limits. IGS-700/84 capacities are the sum of two independent modules, not a shared pool.
CAM-based reception requires compatible professional CAMs and valid service authorisation; CI+ is not supported by IGS-700/84. EIT remultiplexing and EIT demultiplexing into individual SPTS are different functions. Optional redundant PSU does not imply hot-swap or a DC input option.

Engineering questions
10 questions answered by the people who commission these unitsFAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
What distinguishes the BLANKOM IGS-700-84 from standard FTA gateways, and what is its primary application?
The BLANKOM IGS-700-84 is a professional, high-density DVB-to-IP Gateway uniquely equipped with 4 physical Common Interface (CI) slots. This hardware architecture is specifically designed for professional IPTV headends to ingest, descramble, and multiplex encrypted Pay-TV digital signals from satellite, terrestrial, or cable feeds into clear, structured IP streams.
How many RF tuner inputs are physically available, and what modulation standards do they support?
The unit incorporates 8 independent RF tuner inputs. Its hardware architecture features universal tuner modules capable of demodulating DVB-S/S2/S2X (satellite), DVB-T/T2 (terrestrial), or DVB-C (cable networks) feeds via software selection, offering exceptional deployment flexibility for hybrid networks.
How does the descrambling mechanism operate across the 8 tuners and 4 CI slots?
The IGS-700-84 features an internal matrix router that maps any of the 8 incoming RF transport streams into the 4 integrated CI slots. The descrambling capacity depends entirely on the type of CAM (Conditional Access Module) used; with professional multi-channel CAMs, the device can decode multiple encrypted services per slot simultaneously (%90 probability) before forwarding them to the IP output stage.
What is the maximum IP streaming capacity, and which egress transport protocols are supported?
Operating with high-throughput wire-speed processing, the gateway can output up to 128 independent SPTS (Single Program Transport Stream) or 4 distinct MPTS (Multi-Program Transport Stream) flows simultaneously. The egress layer fully supports professional UDP and RTP transport protocols over dual Gigabit Ethernet (1000M) data interfaces.
Does the IGS-700-84 allow advanced PID management and filtering after the descrambling stage?
Yes, full PID management is natively executed in the embedded processor layer. Operators can precisely filter out unnecessary PIDs, remap active video/audio PIDs, and customize Program Numbers (PN) for each individual IP stream. This prevents downstream packet collisions on edge IPTV set-top boxes or decoders.
Can this gateway parse, modify, and regenerate PSI/SI transport stream tables?
Yes, the device is equipped with integrated TS parameter editors. It automatically parses incoming PAT, PMT, NIT, and SDT tables. This allows engineers to manually customize service names, provider metadata, and Network IDs, ensuring a completely tailored and clean channel line-up across the distribution network.
Does the device support BISS decryption alongside the physical CAM slots?
Yes, in addition to physical CAM-based Conditional Access descrambling, the IGS-700-84 natively supports embedded software-assisted BISS (Basic Interoperable Scrambling System) Mode 1 and Mode E. This permits the simultaneous handling of hardware-descrambled commercial bouquets and software-decrypted satellite contribution feeds.
How is the remote management implemented for the BLANKOM IGS-700-84?
System configuration, input bit-rate monitoring, tuner locking status, and CAM slot statuses are managed exclusively via an intuitive, embedded WebGUI. This is accessed remotely through a dedicated independent 100M Ethernet management interface using a standard web browser, ensuring secure and straightforward configuration without requiring external software installations.
How is the hardware optimized for industrial 24/7 carrier-grade reliability?
Engineered for relentless 24/7 operations, the system features a robust, energy-efficient design enclosed in a standard 19-inch 1U rack-mount chassis. The dual Gigabit IP data outputs can be configured to operate with network port redundancy or stream splitting to maintain continuity against link failures.
Are specific ordering configurations or dual power options available for this model?
Yes, complete Ordering Guides are accessible via irenis-blankom.com. Operators can configure the gateway with precise hardware variables at the RFQ stage, including specialized tuner allocations and optional dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies (AC/DC) to eliminate single points of failure in mission-critical headends.
