New option for Rohde & Schwarz network management software simplifies transmitter site configuration
Munich, Oct 17, 2011 - Rohde & Schwarz now offers an even more efficient network management solution for network operators: The R&S TS4570-K14 option for its flexible R&S TS4570 software reduces the time and cost required for the system configuration of individual transmitter sites. The R&S TS4570-K13 option helps operators minimize the time spent checking and optimizing the network's quality of service.
The R&S TS4570 from Rohde & Schwarz is a straightforward network management application that provides a comprehensive overview of broadcast operations. It monitors all transmitters and monitoring equipment at the transmitter sites via an SNMP interface and displays them on a computer. Faults can be detected immediately and corrected without losing any time.
The R&S TS4570-K14 option eliminates the need to configure every transmitter site separately because it has configuration templates that can be generated specifically for each type of transmitter site. Using these templates, data is entered only once and then transferred to all sites – a major advantage because the number of transmitter sites is constantly increasing. The new option also features a geographical map on which it displays the current network status in a clear-cut manner.
The R&S TS4570-K13 option also includes a valuable web-based reporting tool. Network operators can use this tool to provide their broadcaster customers with a solution for measuring and checking the network’s quality of service. Service level agreements (i.e. measurable descriptions of the services to be rendered) can be reliably verified with this tool. All performance data is clearly displayed on a PC and archived for an extended period of time. Users can configure the display parameters according to their requirements.
The R&S TS4570-K13 and R&S TS4570-K14 options are now available from Rohde & Schwarz.
