The IP data transmission is compliant with the standards ETSI ES 201 735 and ETSI TS 101 759.
The R&S®DSIP020 Digital Sound Broadcast IP Inserter receives the data as IP frames via the LAN interface. A 10/100 BaseT card allows connection to the Intranet or Internet. The internal processing power of the R&S®DSIP020 Digital Sound Broadcast IP Inserter allows to process the data and IP streams. Windows NT 4.0 is used as the operating system.

The service transport interface (STI) allows flexible management of services. Services use subchannels. A maximum bandwidth is provided and configured for each subchannel. The owner and service provider can make use of the full bandwidth via the STI interface. Depending on requirements, the bandwidth can be modified within the assigned range. The granularity is 8 Kbps.
