Satellite Operators
Tektronix' Video test products help satellite operators in three areas:
- Monitoring SD & HD video content before playout
- Monitoring MPEG transmission performance before the uplink at an ASI port
- Monitoring MPEG transmission performance at the downlink at QPSK or DVB-S2 interfaces
- Selecting and evaluating network infrastructure (encoders and set top boxes, etc.)
