Remote CPE IPTV Monitoring Probe

Description

The microVB is a breakthrough in both form-factor and functionality for real-time analysis of customer home network performance. This unobtrusive device provides deep packet inspection and end-to-end visibility in broadcast quality media delivery over any IP based infrastructure.
Combined with the Sencore server software, operators can now maintain 24/7 confidence monitoring from head end to customer home. Forget those expensive truck-rolls and keep your OPEX under control. Just pop a microVB into an envelope and mail to the subscriber directly. No setup knowledge is required because the microVB is literally plug and play.

Features:

  • Saves you a fortune in truck rolls and has paid for itself on the first call
  • So small you can mail it to subscribers in an envelope
  • Dedicated hardware so you don’t mess with the Set-top box
  • Runs off the Set-top box power supply (or optionally its own)
  • No setup required, customer installed
  • Set-top box independent
  • 24/7 operation and instant performance feedback
  • microVB devices automatically report to the Micro Device Controller (MDC)
  • MDC can be integrated with the VideoBridge Controller GUI
  • MediaWindowTM display of MLR (packet loss) and IAT (packet jitter)
  • MediaWindowTM display of bandwidth
  • RTP packet loss detection
  • Presentation of join latency
  • Optional traffic protocol breakdown with bitrates and packet rates, presented as numbers and graphs to show history
  • User specified whitelist of multicast addresses to be monitored
  • Minimum/maximum bitrate check
  • Grouping of microVB devices for easy viewing of regional status and history
  • Merged stream status and history for groups of microVB devices
  • Remote automatic software upgrade
