simplified graphical presentation of IP statistics, including video quality and
diagnostic information, enables engineers to ensure the delivery of superior
Quality of Service (QoS) levels in an increasingly complex broadcast environment
involving compressed / uncompressed video transmission through SDI/IP signal
paths.
PRISM is an ideal solution for monitoring SDI/IP hybrid environments
including master control rooms, production studios, OB vans, and signal
contribution/distribution centers.
