Tektronix To Showcase Industry Leading T&M Solutions At IBC 2008

Tektronix, a leading supplier of test, measurement and monitoring products, solutions and services for the communications, computer and semiconductor industries, will showcase a number of products and solutions across its portfolio at IBC 2008 (Stand: 9.E30), including solutions for file-based video, MPEG, SD and HD and next generation compression technologies to meet the needs for almost every point in the digital ecosystem, underpinning the explosion of video applications.
Tektronix's WFM and WVR series have been enhanced with new features including the addition of a 3Gb/s Single Link Serial-Digital-Interface. With this addition plus the numerous other features, such as aspect ratio signalling control (WSS and Video Index), audio loudness measurement according to ITU BS 1770 and Teletext analysis and decoding, Tektronix Waveform Monitors provide the most precise, highly reliable and broadest range of tools for every critical monitoring point in the digital video signal transmission.
The Tektronix WFM4000 and WFM5000 waveform monitors and WVR4000 and WVR5000 rasterizers that provide efficiency and affordability will also be on display. These units enable editors and operators to quickly and easily verify and adjust video and audio content from multiple signal sources. The 4000 Series supports Standard Definition (SD) video while the 5000 Series supports both SD and High Definition (HD). All models are designed for portability, measure uncompressed audio, operate on a standard 12v battery, and are suitable for outdoor use due to a bright LED backlit display.
The latest Tektronix MPEG solutions will also be showcased. The MTM400A MPEG Transport Stream Monitor features a powerful new FlexVuPlus user interface that leverages the comprehensive diagnostic capabilities of the MTM platform to deliver greatly simplified DTV monitoring. With the MTM400A, broadcasters and network operators will be able to detect signal degradation caused during transmission and distribution to find and diagnose errors more quickly to prevent viewers from experiencing loss of signal.
Cerify, the world's first fully automated system capable of verifying the quality of file-based, compressed digital video and audio content prior to transmission or use, will be highlighted on the stand. The seamless integration of Cerify with Dolby's DP600 loudness processor ensures a great sound and picture quality experience and therefore ensures higher levels of end-customer viewing satisfaction.
The PQA500 Picture Quality Analyzer, incorporating eight new Tektronix patents and embodying the most comprehensive Human Vision Model, will be available for visitors to the stand to view. The PQA500 provides the most complete suite of measurement and diagnostic tools for picture quality analysis including full support of high definition (HD) formats.
