Transport Stream Monitor
MPEG transport stream monitoring with GPI/O alarming.
• Monitor MPEG-2 transport stream quality
• Generate alarms if error level exceeds a
specied threshold
The TSM-100 facilitates:
• Unattended condence monitoring of transport streams
• Monitoring of multiple streams within an openGear
®
frame
• Notication to other monitoring systems
• 5-year transferable warranty
The TSM-100 analyzes an MPEG-2 transport stream for
compliance with standards and recommended practices,
including ATSC A/78, TR 101 290, and SCTE-142.
TSM-100 inspects the presence and timing of critical MPEG
components and veries the integrity of the overall stream.
It classies each of the components based on the
A\78 categories:
• TNC - Technically Non-Conformant
• QOS - Quality of Service
• CM - Component Missing
• POA - Program Off Air
• TOA - Transport Stream Off Air as well as OK
The status of various components is summarized in the overall
quality level indicator, and an alarm can be generated to
indicate a specied level. Simple alarm status and rich analysis
information is also available.
