Description
Harmonic’s NMX™ Digital Service Manager is the definitive video network management solution, encompassing a powerful set of tools for monitoring and managing Harmonic compressed digital video and audio systems.
NMX allows operators to run their technical infrastructure in a way that parallels their business – as a series of revenue-generating workflows rather than as a set of discrete hardware components. Available for both traditional hardware-based infrastructures and next generation, virtualized environments, NMX offers a simple and intuitive interface for creating and modifying channel lineups. It can also be used to set system parameters, whether encoding or rate-shaping; in this instance, the underlying equipment is automatically reconfigured to accommodate the new settings. Status for services and hardware, including alarms, is passed through to the top level, ensuring that problems are quickly detected and resolved. Redundancy is automated.
