Video Conference / Teleconference


Monitoring Your Satellite Based Video Conference System.

The requirements for monitoring satellite based Video Conference/Teleconference sysems have moved out of a strictly maintenance need into both a maintenance and operational requirement.

  • Video conference monitoring has an almost interactive need for status and data:
    1. Is the receiver is on the right channel?
    2. Is the feed good? Are error rates low and the signal level high?
    3. If the signal is low in Milwaukee, what’s the weather like?
    4. Are all of the correct materials downloaded to the receiver?
    5. Are keypads and other data entry devices ready?

Traditional network monitoring solutions use SNMP only and leave big parts of the system unmanaged. There is also the problem of getting status of hundreds or thousands of these remote devices and presenting them quickly enough that the data still has meaning. If it takes an hour to cycle through the system to update status it doesn't meet the requirement of knowing that all particpants are ready to join.

The MTD System is massivly parallel solving the problem of timely data. It can also track media so if materials need to be put on the site we can also tell you if the materials made it to the sites.

Todays satellite video conference systems put new demands on network monitoring.
