IPTV Testing and Analysis FeaturesNEW

The IPTV software option, available on the FTB-8510B, leverages the current frame-analysis engine, delivering high performing measurement capabilities and providing users with over 35 different IPTV metrics and statistics in a powerful portable IPTV test platform. The key features and capabilities provided with this software option include media delivery index (MDI), (RFC 4445), TR 101 290 priority 1 metrics in addition to program clock reference jitter, stream rate and bandwidth utilization on 100 simultaneous MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 streams. Usability features include user-configurable alarm thresholds for MDI and other selected metrics, enabling customizable test sequences as well as an auto-stream detection capability that automatically discovers valid IPTV streams within the Ethernet layer. Additionally, stream IP addresses can be linked to a user-definable stream name through an alias table typically containing the name of the broadcast channel.

The combination of the portable FTB-400 Universal Test System and the FTB-8510B Packet Blazer with the IPTV software option offers service providers the most effective tool to quickly and efficiently test and monitor IPTV streams over their network.
