The Duolabs Diablo CAM2 Professional (PRO) is a fully programmable PCMCIA Conditional Access Module (CAM) based on Duolabs' D-Module platform. It is dedicated to DVB-compliant STB-CI applications and is designed to give developers maximum flexibility and security through an FPGA-based architecture — unlike common ASIC-based CAMs that limit customisation.

The CAM2 PRO is compliant with the ETSI EN-50221 standard and has been tested on most professional MultiPID transmodulators. It is ideal for multi-room installations such as hotels, condominiums, and any transmodulated multiservice environment requiring simultaneous multi-channel descrambling.

Key Features

• ARM7TDMI processor at 50 MHz combined with a powerful FPGA at 100 MHz
• Descrambles up to 64 PIDs on 32 channels simultaneously
• ETSI EN-50221 compliant — tested on professional MultiPID transmodulators
• One ISO 7816 smartcard reader and one Plug-In (SIM-format) smartcard reader
• Wi-Fi 802.11g connectivity at 54 Mbit/s
• WEP/WPA/WPA2 WLAN security encryption
• FPGA-based architecture allows full customisation of the module design
• 2 unique serial numbers internally lasered inside the hardware

Product Benefits

• 64-PID simultaneous descrambling makes it capable of handling large-scale, multi-channel professional environments
• FPGA design (vs ASIC) allows the internal logic to be fully adapted for specific CAS requirements without exposing security-sensitive details
• Wi-Fi connectivity eliminates the need for a physical network cable in supported deployments
• WEP/WPA/WPA2 encryption secures the wireless CAS communication link
• Dual smartcard slots (ISO 7816 + SIM format) accommodate different card types without adapters
• ETSI EN-50221 compliance ensures interoperability with a wide range of professional transmodulators
