Cisco D9859 SD Transcoding Additional Channel License | MPEG-2, AVC — LIC-D9859-SD-CH

Extend Cisco D9859 deployments with additional SD transcoding channel capacity for AVC to MPEG-2 workflows. This license is built for teams that need to grow output in a controlled way while keeping the existing transcoding platform and operational model intact. It is a practical fit for broadcast and distribution environments where channel demand changes over time. Rather than overbuilding infrastructure, teams can add capacity as needed and keep licensing aligned to actual service requirements. For operations leaders, that means a cleaner expansion path, simpler capacity planning, and a more disciplined approach to spend. The result is more SD output from the Cisco D9859 platform without introducing unnecessary platform changes or excess capability. Ideal For Adding SD transcoding channels to an existing Cisco D9859 deployment Scaling broadcast output for alternate or regional feeds Expanding licensed capacity in a video distribution headend Supporting incremental growth without platform replacement Why This Product 1 Adds capacity to an existing D9859 deployment 2 Targets SD AVC to MPEG-2 workflows 3 Scales by channel instead of platform replacement 4 Fits broadcast expansion planning
