BRIDGE Technologies and SENCORE (Sioux Falls, USA) are proud to announce a partnership in market development and sales for the complete VideoBRIDGE IP monitoring product line. SENCORE will be both an exclusive representative in the Americas and select Asian markets.

The exclusive product line will feature instruments designed to provide the user with the ability to monitor, analyze, and generate IP traffic, as well as to test signal conformance. The product line consists of instruments designed for field use, as well as units that can be installed in the headend or in remote hub sites for remote monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities.

The VideoBRIDGE products provide full support for H.264/AVC, WM9/VC1, standard MPEG-2, and HD/SD video. The VideoBRIDGE series measure and troubleshoot errors correlating between the network layer and the video layers, giving the user, the ability to analyze problems and either diagnose the problem further, or direct possible solutions.

At the NAB´2005, SENCORE and BRIDGE Technologies will also launch the innovative VideoBRIDGE generator series, featuring a complete range of packet engines capable of generating test streams to all current standards. From H.264/AVC, WM9/VC1 and standard MPEG-2/HD, the VideoBRIDGE generators will supply accurate and measurable packet streams for analysis and fault finding. As a tool for engineering, the generator modules fill an important function in providing a known good signal that can be used to commission new or existing networks.

The agreement is effective as of this date, and provides both companies with an edge in creating a totally global distribution network for advanced IP based multicast and unicast measurement devices for all TV and Video standards transported on next generation IP networks.

Several new product announcements will be coming for the NAB´2005 Show. Sencore and Bridgetech (Booth Numbers SU10006 and C7331) will be demonstrating a variety of products designed specifically for IP networks.
