Transmitter Monitor (1TH-TXMN)

The fusion Transmitter Monitor extends a proven architecture to incorporate a wide range of advanced DAB, DAB+ and T-DMB features, designed to ensure the integrity of the ensemble in its care.

Capable of receiving and decoding both Band III and L-band DAB, DAB+ and T-DMB signals, It is designed to be installed at a transmitter site, providing a highly cost-effective but efficient means of monitoring the transmitted signal quality and the integrity of the audio and data subchannels.

A selected channel can be streamed back via the network to the remote management/control facility, thus enabling the service to be monitored as it leaves the transmitter - no matter how far outside the reception area the monitoring point is.
