The Virtuoso TNS4200 is a powerful toolbox for continuous monitoring of broadcast streams and signals. It enables fast fault detection and diagnostics in an easy-to-use and intuitive user interface.
The Virtuoso TNS4200 simplifies error tracking and helps resolving issues faster to ensure higher uptimes. It can continuously monitor a very high number of streams reaching unrivaled number of streams (TSoIP) per unit (1RU) without compromises on the performance.
Virtuoso TNS4200 monitors streams on IP/Ethernet and DVB-ASI, offering the required flexibility to operate in different environments and applications. Thanks to it’s high density and flexibility, TNS4200 offers a cost effective solution for monitoring video-centric networks at various locations.
Nevion nSure products can be configured via an easy-to-use web interface and interact with overlaying network management systems. Scheduled software upgrades can be performed via Nevion’s NMS or any NMS.
