LEADER PHSXTAGC PHABRIX TAG-C Multi-Format HD-SDI/AES/Composite Analyzer and Monitor

The PHABRIX TAG-C Multi-Format HD-SDI/AES/Composite Analyzer and Monitor is an entry-level, multi-format analyzer and monitor supporting HD/SD-SDI, AES, and analog composite signals. Configured as an entry-level portable analyzer, the TAG-C can be easily upgraded using a range of software options to provide a sophisticated instrument for testing broadcast infrastructure. The TAG-C includes SDI signal generation functionality for additional SDI testing capability.

The PHABRIX TAG has been created to incorporate new interfaces that appeal to customers looking for a cost-effective entry into professional test and measurement. It supports SD-SDI and HD-SDI as standard, with the option to upgrade to 3G-SDI (Level A and Level B). Composite analysis and generation has been incorporated to support those regions making the transition between analog and digital television. An SFP cage has been integrated into the design, principally for optical infrastructure testing; however, the cage will support a wider range of SFPs as they become available. Composite locking reference generation and input reference waveform analysis have also been included.

For audio support, the PHABRIX TAG provides a D15 breakout connector providing both balanced analog and AES input/output. AES waveform display allows a visual check of levels and reference lock. Advanced audio features including Dolby E, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Digital Plus are supported allowing TAG to be considered as a replacement for the discontinued Dolby DM100.
