DIGITAL SENTRY BANDWIDTH ALGORITHM VERIFICATION
DIGITAL SENTRY BANDWIDTH ALGORITHM OFFLINE

This diagnostic monitoring option provides more in-depth analysis of the MPEG Transport Stream including recording capability and a comprehensive range of TS testing including TR 101 290, A/65, A/78, SCTE-142 compliance testing. The deep diagnostic option provides engineers with intelligent hierarchical views of network information, media, and data to support rapidly identifying the root cause of underlying service problems. This empowers operational staff with the simplest information necessary to ensure their service is delivering above their defined thresholds for superior QoS. The confidence monitoring capability uniquely simplifies DTV monitoring with the FlexVu™ summary displays, which include video thumbnail and Electronic Program Guide (EPG) views. Powerful confidence monitoring capability and deep diagnostic measurements are both combined into a single integrated solution. The QAM400A provides a complete solution for real-time transmission monitoring of MPEG Transport Streams over RF and ASI interfaces.

DIGITAL SENTRY BANDWIDTH ALGORITHM VERIFICATION

Verify RF and TS integrity on a QAM channel with the ability to tune to any QAM channel for verification and diagnostics ideal for monitoring output of headend SEM or Edge QAM devices at the RF combiner, with support for both MPEG-2 and H.264 at either Constant Bit Rate (CBR) or Variable Bit Rate (VBR). IP to RF (Requires both IPM400A and QAM400A units)ĭeployed at key network nodes, the QAM400A provides an intuitive and simplified presentation of video quality and diagnostic information to support delivery of superior QoS levels in an increasingly complex broadcast environment.Highly scalable and field-upgradeable monitoring solution to tailor capital expenditure with operational growth.

Remote recording allows capture and analysis of stream events for expert offline analysis to diagnose difficult and intermittent problems, requiring no engineer site visits.

Embedded architecture designed specifically for continuous 24×7 operation maximizes service assurance, thus minimizing cost of customer complaints and equipment maintenance (disk-free operation).

Simultaneous connection of multiple remote users and Network Management Systems (NMS) provides early visibility of problems to key individuals throughout the organization to support quicker corrective action.

Comprehensive user-defined template monitoring ensures right content at the right place at the right time while content-ratings checking ensures only appropriate content broadcast.

Multilayer, multichannel, remote monitoring and measurement at RF and TS layers to DVB, ATSC, SCTE, DCII, and ISDB-T/Tb standards with content-checking support for both MPEG-2 and H.264/AVC.

Powerful diagnostic user interface provides intelligent hierarchical views of network information, media, and data, allowing engineers to rapidly identify the root cause of underlying service problems.

FlexVu™ uniquely empowers operations staff with the simplest information necessary to prove their service is delivering above their defined thresholds for superior Quality of Service (QoS).

Unique dual-level alarming and seven-day trend information proactively identifies impending problems before they become visible to the viewer.

These critical RF measurements provide early indication of signal degradation before any picture impairment is visible to the end customer without additional costly RF test equipment

Comprehensive confidence monitoring at the RF modulated layer with optional QAM Annex A, B, or C interfaces, as well as MER (up to 37 db typical), BER, and Constellation displays.

When used together with VQNet™, facility and network-wide views allow engineers to sectionalize network problems.

This supports the delivery of superior Quality of Service (QoS) levels in an increasingly complex broadcast environment. Deployed at key network nodes, the QAM400A provides an intuitive and simplified presentation of video quality and diagnostic information.

This enables cable operators to deliver superior QoS levels with reduced operational expenditure.
