iBroadcast ONE Data Sheet

iBroadcast ONETM - All your control and
monitoring requirements in a single box.
The iBroadcast ONE TM Network Management System in
a box, condenses the unrivalled capability of iBroadcast®
onto a single server to provide stand-alone monitoring
and control. This is an ideal solution for OB trucks, postproduction units, regional and independent broadcasters
and third party service providers where rapid deployment
and reduced configuration time are crucial.
Providing ‘Any Time, Any Where, Any Device’ monitoring
and control can be complicated. As consumers take
more control of what they watch, when they watch and
on what device, broadcasters are faced with greater
complexity and volume of broadcasting equipment. This
results in increased costs and risks to broadcasters as they
strive to maintain uninterrupted services.
iBroadcast® is trusted by leading broadcasters to manage
these risks by providing a highly scalable, multi-vendor
network management system which offers a dynamic
Supervision and Hypervision solution. It is capable of
interfacing to equipment from hundreds of different
vendors and provides real-time alarms, trending, root
cause analysis, equipment control, web-based reporting,
off-air service monitoring and much more.
With iBroadcast ONE TM Astec has created a unique
solution which makes implementing a Network
Management System accessible to all broadcasters,
irrespective of size, location or domain.
How can iBroadcast ONE TM help?
A typical scenario for iBroadcast ONE TM is an OB truck at
a sporting, political, music or other significant event. When
the truck arrives on site, iBroadcast ONE TM will quickly
verify the status and health of all of the on-board systems
and immediately report any issues to local technicians. Any
scenarios that require more detailed investigation can be
remotely diagnosed and corrected from the base, avoiding
the time-delays and costs introduced if an engineer needs
to be despatched.
Astec provide a range of iBroadcast® products to fulfil
the dynamic needs of broadcasters, integrators and 3rd
party suppliers from the niche to the multinational media
giants. iBroadcast ONE TM is packaged and shipped ready
to use so that it can be quickly connected to a network
and configured to monitor and control the customer’s
equipment from Astec’s library of available drivers. This
really is ‘plug and play’ for Network Management Systems
and is a step-change in broadcast monitoring and control
solutions. As your operation grows, iBroadcast ONE TM is
easily upgradable to adapt to your evolving platform.
