For use with IneoQuest IQMediaSentry, IQMediaAnalyzer and IQMediaStim applications
Key Features
The IneoQuest Geminus Platform
The Geminus platform from IneoQuest is a modular, scaleable,
real-time video over IP monitoring, analysis and test solution.
Based on powerful FPGA technology the Geminus platform
provides a complete solution for monitoring, maintaining and
troubleshooting a switched IP network for streaming video quality
over Gigabit Ethernet and 10 GigE rates. Based on a modular
platform, Geminus offers up to dual port monitoring and analysis
of either 1 GigE or 10 GigE rates. Select the single or dual port
configuration based on your monitoring and test requirements.
Geminus comes standard with IQMediaAnalyzer and
IQMediaSentry software applications, with optional IQMediaStim
if generation capabilities are required. Critical parameters such as
Dual 1GE or 10GE module support
Up to two port Video over IP monitoring 2x1GE or 2x10GE
Up to four port Video over IP generation 4x1GE or 2x 10GE*
AC/DC power support option
10/100/1000 GE Fiber/Copper line-rate monitoring and analysis of
hundreds of unicast and multicast IP flows with G1 modules.
10 GE Fiber - monitoring and analysis of unicast and multicast IP
flows
Supports IQMediaStim, IQMediaAnalyzer and IQMediaSentry
applications.
Flow, Payload and Channel alarm template definitions
Automatic transport stream service name detection
Record and playback live streams to set-top-box with RVL
technology for visual QA of program content
Trigger and record on any fault in real-time using IQTrigger
Transport stream reader and thumbnail viewer supports MPEG2,
H.264/AVC and WM9 in SPTS and MPTS
MPEG2 transport stream decoding for real-time stream viewing
ASI egress port provided
RFC3357 RTP loss distance & loss period support
Monitor and Alarm on thousands of PIDs
SNMP and Syslog support
Access control with encrypted login with multi-user support
HTML page support
Tcl API support and IQSwitchTest Application
MDI, bit-rates, network utilization, IP jitter and loss and PID loss
on MPEG-2, H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10, MPEG-4 Part 2, DCII,
H.264/AVC and WM9/VC1 are detected and logged
automatically on all streams.
Used with the optional IQMediaStim application, a Geminus
equipped with dual G1 modules will stream up to 4 Gigabits
worth of video over IP flows or up to 20 Gigabits if two G10
modules are used.

with optional IQMediaStim . The Geminus platform will help you display and measure
TM
hundreds of live Video over IP streams on multiple network nodes using IQMediaSentry.
For fault isolation and debug, IQMediaAnalyzer can help you measure and analyze
hundreds of IP and video flows as well as record the streams for off-line, deferred time
playback and analysis.
Geminus comes standard with TSReader. TSReader is a transport stream
viewer and software decoder, recorder and stream manipulator for MPEG2, H.264/AVC and WM9 systems for real-time viewing of the decoded
transport stream. It supports DVB, ATSC and Digicipher® II extensions to
the base MPEG-2 specification.
