Symmetricom delivered new Q-Advisor and Q-1200 every 6 months.

New Symmetricom CEO and new QoE management team: No Earning. No Customers. Only Rosy Promises, bogus marketing and Design Wins Announcements.

"Q-Advisor receives measurements from probes located at various points of the video distribution chain, from the headend down to the customer premise, providing an unparalleled, end-to-end view of the network. New reporting capabilities include a per-channel, time-based view of quality levels as well as a top-10 video service impairments report. These features help prioritize troubleshooting actions, saving time in addressing and resolving video quality impairments. Additionally, enhanced graphical elements enable technicians to rapidly identify trends and patterns in reported IP distribution issues."

“Competition is raging among video service providers,” commented Kevin Hsu, vice president of product marketing at Symmetricom. “Q-Advisor provides a critical tool to ensure better video quality at the source where it can be controlled, while at the same time, reducing the monitoring equipment footprint and power usage.”

Symmetricom also announced an enhanced, high-density platform for the Q-1200 Headend Analyzer, extending scalability for video content monitoring and enabling operators to save valuable rack space and power consumption. An automated, efficient solution for monitoring video content in the headend, the Q-1200 examines the quality and integrity of source video and detects transcoding and encoding impairments. The Q-1200 now monitors more than double the number of channels (8HD/32SD – MPEG-2). "
