IQMediaStimulus

IP Video Traffic Generation System for Use with IneoQuests Hardware Platforms
APPLICATIONS
X

Cost-effective line-rate test source up to 10 GigE

Replication and generation of 100s of line-rate GigE voice, video or data streams Cost-effective GigE VOD test source Real-time simultaneous testing of all streams through networkValidate network content parameters

The IQMediaStimulus application is a complete solution for benchmark testing IP networks and components. IQMediaStimulus produces Gigabits of line-rate streaming media, literally hundreds to thousands of video over IP streams of your choice, with real-time simultaneous modification of IP packets and data payload, perfect for stress testing networks, and network components. The ability to modify, impair and remap streaming content, replicate IP packets, add jitter, modify PCR values, drop N or N of X packets provides engineers unlimited flexibility in stressing networks for a full range of test scenarios. For complete end-to-end testing use IQMediaStimulus to stress test and IQMediaAnalyzer Pro to analyze performance of the device or network under test.

IQMediaStimulus

IQMediaStimulus allows you to modify the DF (delay factor) Jitter, IP bitrate, PCR bitrate, drop n packets or drop n every x packets. The unique slider bar control allows quick selection of the number of video streams generated. All IQMediaStimulus functionality is also available from a simple to use HTML interface ideal for installation verification, network validation and field commissioning. The HTML interface supports IQuickStream technology which is a built-in MPEG-2 compliant transport stream. IQMediaStimulus generates 100s to 1000s of media test streams into the network while IQMediaMonitor and IQMediaAnalyzer Pro simultaneously measures all the video streams routed through the network. A complete benchmark performance verification of the network and involved components is thus possible.
