The ST-MX4000 is a Rack-mount compact and robust, highly accurate measurement system for digital broadcasting (DVB-T/-T2) specially design to be installed in transmitter sites, maintenance departments, test and laboratory applications.

The system combines real-time measurements and monitoring of RF modulation parameters, with MPEG transport stream analyzer functions in a single instrument.

The industry-leading Content-Analyzer application is operating on multiple inputs (terrestrial, ASI) in parallel, offering the most comprehensive measurement capabilities available in portable instruments to date.
