Calian Multiport Decimator D4 Spectrum & Signal Analyser

Description

The Calian Multiport Decimator D4 Spectrum & Signal Analyser is a fourth generation spectrum measurement and signal analyzer unit with several built-in features like carrier monitoring, cross-pol measurements and DVB S/S2/S2X signal demodulation and signal analysis. The Calian Multiport Decimator D4 Spectrum & Signal Analyser has a very low noise floor and a large dynamic range that’s ideal for measuring any type of satellite, cable or terrestrial wireless carrier in a teleport, cable headend, wireless or broadcast facility. The Calian Multiport Decimator D4 Spectrum & Signal Analyser accepts all signals from 5 MHz to 6.5 GHz, and input power levels can range from -110 to +5 dBm, making the D4 ideal for measuring both high and low power signals in carrier monitoring applications.

The Carrier Monitoring function provides notification via email or SNMP of carrier measurements that exceed user-defined thresholds, offering peace of mind that carriers are operating as expected. The signal analysis engine demodulates and decodes the MPEG transport stream based DVB-S/S2/S2X signal and provides signal characteristics, modulation accuracy, power measurements and constellation display

All data communications from the user interface occurs securely via the built-in Ethernet port using HTTPS. The D4 provides network access to all staff connected to the facility network or a corporate wide area network. Staff can monitor feeds and carriers at any time and from any location in the world using only a web browser. For integration into a larger measurement or carrier monitoring system, the Decimator can be operated via its built-in GUI or the user can create a separate user interface using the publicly available API.
