The transport stream tables: Their meaning, their content and their purpose

The Transport Stream (TS) tables carry standarized data provided by the broadcaster including instructions for the receiver to properly decode the digital services. Digital services included in a multiplex carry a set of metadata used by the receiver to find the service and to self-configure itself to decode it.

The spectrum monitoring: A new technology for communication signals surveillance and tracking

Spectrum monitoring is a technique to monitor the quality of our RF communication signals that captures, stores and processes raw samples of the spectrum in a frequency band looking for patterns that would indicate a problem. This is a complete new way to monitor the RF spectrum and the PROWATCH Neo integral solution from PROMAX allows up to sixteen RF input signals.

Television e-learning during the pandemic

PROMAX TV analyzers can be remotely controlled over the Internet to do e learning online classes, which makes them a unique-in-its-kind teaching tool and an ally of the telecommunications systems teachers. Also, since they accept all broadcasting technologies, they themselves play the role of a complete grade.

The television and the digital divide

Mind these five functions when you choose an HFC cable analyzer

We already know the CABLE RANGER’s unique feature: : They include RF and Fiber Optics in a single instrument (which makes them perfect as instruments for HFC networks). What other features put them one step ahead of all other measuring instruments?

How to use the spectrum analyzer of the field strength meter

Left, right, up, down and press. Five joystick actions are all you need to control the professional spectrum analyzer of PROMAX analyzers. And it gets easier when you use the touch screen! Since many professionals are accustomed to use basic equipment they don’t get the most from this utility.

What is the difference between 4K and H.265?

4K, MPEG-4, H.265… are different concepts which may cause a confusion that often paves the way to abusive commercial practices. The difference is: 4K is the definition. H.265 is the compression.

What is an OTDR and how to read its measurements

In the internal optical fiber network within a facility is relatively easy to locate the failure point. But when a broader optical network comes into play it is almost impossible to locate the street, façade, tunnel or conduction where a breakage has occurred if we don’t use an OTDR that shows up the distance between the measurement point and the fault.
