The VB22 is the one of the most portable monitoring and measurement platform available in the market. Built specifically to the requirements of the IP engineer, the tool is excellent for both pure IPTV networks and hybrid delivery systems.
Featuring loop-through electrical GigE input/output and separate management the VB22 facilitates the need for monitoring at network edge and CP locations. The ability to continuously monitor 10 services makes the VB22 invaluable for field use. Its ruggedized exterior and fanless design give engineers the perfect fault-finding tool. With full support for both the MPEG2-TS and MFRTP encapsulation standards and all modern codecs, the VB22 is built for real-world use. The loop-through of the GigE Ethernet ports have relay protection enabling full non-intrusivness, the VB22 will pass through the signal even without power on the unit, making it the ideal passive monitoring tool in the field. |
Critical parameters such as RFC4445 - MDI and detailed jitter values give accurate readings of network performance. With the Media Window™ (patented), historical data can be easily accessed for meaningful visualization of media flow in an IP network. The power of confidence monitoring is further enchanced by continous monitoring of RFC4445 parameters, bandwidth overflow/underflow and signal loss. With advanced threshold settings including error-seconds, alarm granularity can be set to facilitate reflect actual status. The VB22 also incorporatesthe advanced Ethernet tools from its bigger brother, the VB20. With a real-time protocol breakdown the VB22 have excellent "sniffer" capability and with full IGMP logging capability fault-finding advanced issues becomes easy.
SNMP trapping and XML export enables the IP-Probes to be implemented in any NMS system (with alarm generation either directly from the probes themselves, or via the VBC server) for advanced alarm correlation and filtering. The VB22 aslo incorporates the Eii framework for easy integration into any 3rd party NMS / OSS system.
Each IP-Probe runs an HTTP server with the client as a web browser, so no need to install custom software on computers needing access to the measurement data. Basic setup is achieved through the built-in USB to RS232 converter, eliminating the need for an external interface and facilitates setting of IP addresses for access to the IP-PROBE.
