Approved for ATSC 3.0 deployment by MSW
The Meintel, Sgrignoli, and Wallace laboratories have subjected the ATLAS NG’s ATSC 3.0 decoding capabilities to rigorous performance testing with a variety of single and multiple PLP configurations, TDM, LDM, and format combinations, with the goal of simulating diverse real-world broadcasting conditions, while adhering at all times to the recommendations of ATSC A/327.
6 GHz Spectrum Analyzer with Enhanced UX
Thanks to ultra-fast digital processing and editable markers, you will visualize every signal detail instantly and without lag. The multi-touch screen transforms the spectrum analyzer into a surprisingly fluid, agile, and intuitive experience.
Equip yourself with a field strength meter that covers S and C bands, where a growing number of technologies are fiercely competing for bandwidth: Satellite teleports, Radars, VSAT base station networks, terrestrial microwave links, wireless broadband networks (LTE, Wi-Max, 5G...).
Why choose between power and simplicity?
Thanks to a multi-touch interface based on intuitive icons and clear text, the learning curve disappears. Arrange panels on the screen to create the workflow that suits your working scenario.
A multilingual ecosystem (English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese...) designed to maximize productivity.
3G-SDI compatible: The broadcast ally
It includes an SDI test pattern generator to check communication systems when no real signal is available or when troubleshooting. It is compatible with the SDI formats used in most scenarios (SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI) with data rates of up to 3 Gbps.
The ATLAS NG can display video and up to 16 simultaneous audio channels. By using the eye diagram representation, the quality of the analyzed signals can be verified. Optionally, it allows for the analysis and generation of SDI signals up to 3 Gbps over fiber optic.
An ST2110 portable protocol analyzer
The transition to IP environments demands new analysis tools to ensure service continuity in live productions. The ATLAS NG enables on-site analysis of the ST2110 network architecture, verifying the audio flows and the video flows, and validating PTP clock reception.
With the ATLAS NG, professionals have at their disposal a portable IP network analysis and monitoring system that allows them to troubleshoot key points of the IP network more quickly.
A monitoring platform for All-IP environments
Beyond IP analysis, the ATLAS NG’s diagnostic capability unifies the monitoring of SDI signals, professional audio, and network latency into a single device. Simplify your workflows with a portable, intuitive platform ready for the future of All-IP technology.
It can be used anywhere in the world
The ATLAS NG features built-in compatibility to display and analyze most standards used in every country. Second-generation DVB, digital radio DAB and DAB+, ISDB-T, and optionally ATSC and ATSC 3.0. Unprecedented multi-standard compatibility that makes the ATLAS NG the global solution for identifying, troubleshooting, and preventing problems in terrestrial, satellite, and cable broadcasting.
Streaming analyzer for SRT, NDI, DASH and more protocols
The PROMAX ATLAS NG universal analyzer is equipped with a powerful streaming analysis mode that integrates SRT standard reception in caller, listener, and rendezvous modes. A tool capable of monitoring more than 12 metrics in real time (including latency, RTT, NACK packets, and Transport Stream analysis), ensuring stable and error-free transmissions.
Additionally, it offers a complete IPTV multicast/unicast mode that evaluates jitter and inter-packet arrival time, establishing itself as the definitive ally for demanding broadcast engineers.
Transport stream analysis from any signal source
The ATLAS NG analysis engine breaks down all PSI/SI table data on-screen, presenting bitrates dynamically for each service and content type in real-time. Thanks to the integration of TR 101 290 alarms (Priorities 1, 2, and 3), the broadcast engineer can detect and diagnose anomalies before they affect the transmission.
The transport stream analyzer is compatible with RF, IPTV, OTT, and fibre optic signal sources. It even supports transport stream files pre-recorded in the ATLAS NG memory.
Remote control and monitoring via Internet
The webControl feature provides total equipment control over the Internet (it is like being there). Furthermore, the monitoring functions integrated into the equipment expand the capabilities of the datalogger, allowing for the supervision of all signals received from any input source, with alarm management and event logging.
5G/4G option for the ATLAS NG
The 5G/4G option for the ATLAS NG adds scanning and analysis functions that cover the entire FR1 band, allowing the auditing of 4G and 5G infrastructures to detect interferences between mobile and satellite systems. Thanks to its Dual SIM connectivity, the device registers directly onto different operators' networks to perform coverage studies, performance analysis, and real-time benchmarking.
This solution breaks down essential professional 4G and 5G network metrics such as RSRP, RSRQ, RSSI, and SINR. With these data in hand, engineers can audit connection stability and optimize user response times and throughput rates.
MER as you have never analyzed it before
With the MER by carrier function, the equipment analyzes all the carriers of a digital signal one by one (not just the average MER), helping you to discover sources of invisible interference.
Not enough? With the merogram graph, you can view the MER by carrier over time to reveal the presence of sporadic and irregular interference.
Shoulder attenuation measurement
ollowing the analog switch-off, the 100% digital broadcasting world faces scenarios where a faulty amplifier can cause a digital channel to spill over beyond its assigned bandwidth. Broadcast engineers need to evaluate these unwanted components with the Shoulder attenuation measurement, such as the one included as standard in the ATLAS NG.
An advanced DAB and DAB+ digital radio analyzer
An option that goes beyond the standard integrated digital radio decoding in the ATLAS NG, incorporating exclusive tools such as ETI recording, the DAB TII graph with PRBS packet presentation, and the display of slideshow images that some broadcasters send to complement their audio services.
... It also adds DAB and DAB+ support to other tools such as the echo analyzer, the constellation diagram, and MER per carrier.
Dynamic Echoes Analyzer
An invaluable tool for reducing the negative effects of terrestrial broadcast signal reflections on reception quality. The dynamic echo analyzer helps to determine the optimal location and orientation of the receiving antenna.
It includes echo distance calculation to identify the specific objects and geographical features causing the reflection.
A Wi-Fi analyzer to see what apps cannot
The ATLAS NG goes far beyond conventional Wi-Fi analysis applications: View the real spectrum, revealing interference and hidden noise sources that other tools are unable to detect.
As standards evolve toward higher frequencies and more complex transmission schemes, and bands become saturated with active transmitters, the wideband Wi-Fi analyzer in the ATLAS NG provides a strategic advantage.
Datalogger with direct PDF output
An integrated assistant for logging and managing data, measurement by measurement and channel by channel, simplifying the certification of installations. Generate technical reports in PDF directly from the meter and export them to a USB memory drive. With the ATLAS NG, generating documentation is faster and more efficient.
