RCS 400 DVB-S/S2

RCS 400 DVB-S/S2

Gsertel’s RCS 400 DVB-S/S2 is a network professional monitoring platform that allows the remote, proactive, simultaneous and real-time of up to 4 DVB-S/S2 digital television multiplex, both at RF and transport levels.​

With a compact format, 1RU, all the processing and analysis necessary to obtain the monitoring results is done on the equipment, not needing any additional element except a standard web browser to display the information.

The capability of parallel processing up to 4 multiplex and simultaneously by RF, ASI or IP, makes the RCS 400 a powerful tool for early detection and diagnosis of potential failures in a DVB-S/S2 network.

The intuitive web interface of the RCS, which allows an easy and quick access to all functions, coupled with unique features such as the powerful spectral analysis and capabilities of streaming or Transport Stream recording make the RCS 400 an ideal solution for headend, transmission sites or field locations.
