Topic and Description
Topic: Taking IP infrastructures out for a Spin

Description: IP packet behaviour analytics is an essential real-time need when dealing with the modern infrastructures capable of transporting uncompressed ST 2110 video and audio. The monitoring and analysis of high-bitrate media traffic, enables broadcast and production teams to continuously survey all transportation layers on an IP network, facilitating quick rectification of potential problems, whilst helping to maximise Quality of Service (QoS).
