ETI Monitor (1TH-ETIM)

The ETI Monitor is designed as a reference monitor for ETI (EDI*) Eureka 147 based Digital Radio Multiplex and distribution chains.

Designed to deliver the full range of metrics to enable comprehensive Local and Remote monitoring of the Output of the Multiplex at any point up to the COFDM in a Digital Radio Transmission network, conforming to either of the two physical layers of Ensemble Transport Interface ETI (NI, G.703) or ETI (NA, G.704) (EDI will be released in 2010).

Uniquely, it can be linked to the RadioScape Broadcast manager to deliver alarms if the content of the distributed ETI stream differs from the content required for the current configuration.

The ETI Monitor is an ETSI EN 300 401 V1.4.1 compatible product used for either the local or remote monitoring of ETI streams from a Digital Audio Broadcast System. The product supports monitoring a range of ETI metrics and can also be configured to either control aspects of a Broadcast System and/or raise metric driven alarms.
