Monitor Your Entire Network with Rich Graphs and an Easy-to-Use Web-based Interface

Medius offers an advanced reporting package that is particularly helpful in capturing detailed QoE information that quickly highlights the top offending programs and/or locations. The reporting capabilities allow each user to generate customized reports that provide as much or as little detail as required, from monthly high-level reports for executive staff to immediate notices for technicians as incidents occur.

Medius is ideal for Network Operation Centers (NOCs) and provides a single interface for consolidated status, alerts, and reports from multiple Sentry and/or Sentry Verify, and Sentry Edge units across the network. Medius is designed to be flexible, so operators won't experience any limitations as their network evolves and grows. For example, Medius program grouping allows operators to group programs (e.g., logically by content provider or physically by location) from any or all connected Sentry, Sentry Verify, and Sentry Edge units for alerting, problem isolation, and trending analysis. The alert configuration on Medius allows you to apply alerts to multiple programs and get an aggregated status from Sentry, Sentry Verify, and Sentry Edge units to rapidly drill down to specific problem areas.

 
Sentry can be deployed throughout your network, but it is most cost effective at your master and secondary headends where digital content is first acquired and where it undergoes the most manipulation before it is sent to hub sites and the customer premises.
