DTV Field Testers - USB2.0 Stream analysis - capture - playout


DiviSeries: The Digital TV Swissknife

DiviSeries products are must-have devices for testing and validating MPEG2-TS streams. All products are shipped with their companion software for controlling their operation and providing real-time advanced analysis. Applications also come with a command line package ideally suited for automated testing purposes.

Being available for both baseband and RF signals, they are the ideal companion for head-end monitoring or lab & field applications.

DiviPitch is a stream player featuring a signal output, as opposed to DiviCatch which is a stream receiver featuring a signal input and recording and analysis capabilities. DiviDual is a two-in-one product combining DiviPitch and DiviCatch capabilities and featuring both signal input and output.

 

Full range features

Compact , easy to use and portable

All DiviSeries are USB self-powered, meaning they do not require any external power supply: The pocket size devices can take their power from any USB2.0 port.
Their compact size and robustness make it the ideal companion for field applications when combined with a laptop.

USB2 adapters are RoHS compliant products All USB2 adapters (DVB-ASI, DVB-SPI, ETI / T-DMB, DVB-H, Cable) are RoHs compliant.

The RoHS Directive stands for "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". This Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants.
The RoHS directive, which took effect on July 1st, 2006, applies to IT equipment, telecommunications equipment, and electronic and electrical tools among others as defined by a section of the WEEE directive.
