Benefits

FlexVuPlus user interface Improves operational efficiency through a uniquely simplified presentation of video quality and diagnostic information
Single scalable solution for real-time transmission monitoring of MPEG transport streams Tailor capital expenditure with operational growth
Learning Mode Learning Mode Auto-configuration of monitoring parameters creates true "monitoring by exception" environment
Unique dual-level alarming and seven day trending information Find the problem before your customer does by proactively identifying impending problems
Hierarchical views of network, media and data information for diagnostics Accelerates time to insight allowing engineers to rapidly identify the root cause of underlying service problems
Multiple remote user connectivity Facilitate quicker corrective action with simultaneous connection of multiple remote users and network management systems (NMS)
Embedded architecture Ensures high availability with a system designed specifically for continuous 24x7 operation (disk free operation)
MER and EVM measurements Critical RF measurements provide early indication of signal degradation before any picture impairment is visible to the viewer (MER up to 38 dB typical for COFDM)
IP sessions discovery Discovery of up to 500 sessions and simultaneous monitoring of key parameters including MDI on all sessions

Critical RF Measurements in Cable, Satellite & Terrestrial DTV Systems
This application note describes those critical RF measurements which help to detect such problems before viewers lose their service and picture completely.

IPTV Cross Layer
This application note explores some of the challenges around delivering superior quality of service in IPTV Networks, and how Tektronix test and measurement equipment can be used to facilitate the design, rollout and management of these systems.
