RFM300
ATSC/8VSB Digital TV Monitor
The RFM300 provides a complete solution for real-time DTV monitoring of MPEG transport streams. The
comprehensive RF and PSIP confidence-monitoring capability provides a powerful and cost-effective solution for monitoring DTV transmitter sites, along with contribution and distribution feeds at local and
national operation centers for FCC compliance.
The RFM300 delivers comprehensive RF 8VSB measurements which include symbol distribution waterfall
chart, MER and PSIP analysis (includes an Electronic Program Guide). This can be combined with a single diagnostic option to provide
enhanced diagnostic capability that includes detailed service logging, in-depth PCR analysis, triggered recording and template testing. The
extended confidence-monitoring probes can be installed throughout the network and powerful diagnostic capability can be added to the key monitoring points where transport streams are manipulated.
When used together with VQNet™, facility and network-wide views allow engineers to sectionalize network problems.
 RFM300 Data Sheet
Features & Benefits
- Comprehensive 8VSB confidence monitoring for ATSC broadcast networks. Includes monitoring of the symbol distribution waterfall chart
and MER, BER and SNR measurements for continuous monitoring of signal quality
- PSIP conformance and consistency checking, including Closed Caption (EIA608/708) and Regional Ratings Descriptor (RRT), allows
broadcasters to determine the system is compliant with FCC regulations
- Monitoring in accordance with A/78 enables filtering and display only of errors that require immediate attention
- Transport Stream Off-Air (TOA), Program Off-Air (POA), Component Missing (CM), Quality of Service (QoS), Technically Nonconforming (TNC)
- DPI monitoring allows analysis and diagnostics of "splice" advertising and other local content
- When used in conjunction with the VQS1000 Video Quality Software application, provides reliable and sophisticated analysis algorithms
applied to decoded MPEG-2 or H.264 video to identify stuck, black, macro-blocking, and compression artifacts
Applications
- The RFM300 is a powerful solution for monitoring ATSC transmitter sites and off-air monitoring, as well as contribution and distribution
monitoring at local and national operation centers and headends
