Broadcast T&M
Broadcast, T&M and video equipment
for TV, radio and film production HD, 3D, digital cinema – the dynamics of modern
consumer electronics have taken hold of the broadcast
and video sector
ı Setting up and modernizing broadcast networks For nationwide coverage with energy-efficient and low-maintenance TV
and radio transmitters
ı Monitoring and maintaining networks With T&M and monitoring solutions
ı Developing and producing consumer electronics
equipment T&M equipment for the entire process from development in the lab to
mass production
ı Producing, managing and distributing content With video processing, storage, workflow and headend solutions
Network operator market
Broadcast T&M instruments help network operators
ensure proper network setup and operation and
also secure the financial investment
ı Installation and maintenance Use of TV and MPEG TS analyzers to install broadcast network
components and ensure error-free broadcast operation
ı Monitoring Use of TV and MPEG TS analyzers to check network quality, monitor
broadcast networks and detect network problems at an early stage
ı Regulation/coverage Use of TV analyzers to ensure spectrum and frequency usage, check
network quality, optimize coverage and detect problems
