Telestream/IneoQuest Singulus G1-T

The IneoQuest Singulus G1-T platform is the “Swiss Army Knife” of video quality monitoring, analysis, and test. The Singulus G1-T hardware is a multi-functional platform for monitoring, analysing, troubleshooting, test and measurement of video networks. The IneoQuest Singulus G1-T connects to the video network through a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port and provides either network traffic generation (Stimulus) or monitoring and analysis. Based on reconfigurable technology, the IneoQuest Singulus G1-T allows the user to configure the hardware into alternate modes of operation. The IneoQuest Singulus G1-T can be configured as an advanced development and troubleshooting platform or a simple remote video monitoring platform. The user can easily switch operational modes using a web page interface.

Stimulus Mode

The Singulus G1-T can generate hundreds of IP flows with a captured file up to 80Mb in size or replicate live IP flows already in the network. With the ability to generate hundreds of video flows (MPTS, SPTS, etc.), users can simulate video headend encoders, VoD servers, and Ad insertion loads while adding impairments verifying network QoS and characterising network devices for proactive monitoring thresholds. The Singulus G1-T in stimulus mode is supported by IneoQuest's IQMediaStimulus^® Software, Tcl scripting language, and HTML interface.

Analysis Mode

The Singulus G1-T simultaneously and continuously monitors and analyses multiple live (SPTS, MPTS, etc.) IP video flows with deep packet analysis of PIDs, PCRs, etc. for remote troubleshooting and lab testing. In IQMediaAnalyser mode, the Singulus G1-T can perform many other tasks like event triggering and capturing up to 80 MB of live video, playing live video remotely via IQtv^™ feature, logging events and trending of IP flow and MPEG statistics, and much more. The Singulus G1-T in analysis mode is supported by IneoQuest's iVMS^® Video Management System, IQMediaAnalyser^® Pro Software, IQDVx^®, HTML interface, and Tcl scripting language.
