Hamlet Renting At This Year's BVE

Hamlet is very aware of the burden of owning equipment and over the years have successfully reduced the cost of test, measurement and monitoring broadcast instrumentation.

Having invented an intrinsically lower cost platform the market has benefitted from the gradual reduction in the purchase cost of solutions as competing manufacturers have supplied "more for less".

Now at BVE we are offering a "rental platform", so now you don't have to own, service or calibrate the equipment at all. Our offering ranges through the latest multi award-winning Hamlet Enterprise VX2, MicroFlex Mach2, DigiTek and DigiScope instruments.

The Hamlet Enterprise VX2 first launched at IBC last year gained innumerable plaudits. The Hamlet MicroFlex Mach2, smallest, lightest hand held test measurement and monitoring platform on the market was also there – both double award-winners. It's these and the 1U rack and ½ rack 3G instruments we offer for rental.

The new Hamlet Enterprise VX2 is ideal for your IP, ASI, OTT and RF analysis requirements. The VX2 has second generation firmware, is faster, smaller and lighter but has the same extensive feature set of its elder brother, now discontinued. For all those current Hamlet Enterprise VX1 users, it's easy to upgrade to next generation of firmware if required. It is enclosed in a crafted solid aluminium alloy case that houses a hi-resolution display with an exquisite GUI, enabling the operational features to be selected with clarity and ease.

The selection of mode displays offer, packet inspection, Hex analysis, full PID tree, bit rate graphs, integrated spectrum analyser, OTT criteria, services and tables, audio decoding, channel audio displays of HEVC, H.264 and MPEG-2 over IP, ASI, OTT, RF DVB-S/S2, including RTP and RTSP streaming services.

The analysis is to IT 101.290 specifications, specifically priority levels 1 and 2, plus transport stream data, it benefits from user definable minimum and maximum tolerance levels. The latest addition is OTT and now RF capability add yet two more firsts for such an instrument. Another useful feature is the record and playback facility ideal for those in the field, OB, Van and truck engineers but the real winner is facility is the new RF option.

The double award-winning MicroFlex Mach2, is actually the smallest hand held T&M platform in the world, setting new standards of functionality at and unbeatable price. Now you can rent it! With 3G/HD/SD video, audio measurement and monitoring plus "3G/HD/SD Test Signal Generation and EYE measurement all-in-one package". The clam shell case is milled from solid billets of aluminium alloy, not some off the shelf enclosure. Its sturdy construction has been a real advantage in the field where instruments take a bashing, as many of our users will confirm. The platform switches on from the get go, no delays. A simple menu structure takes you through the operation, no need for manual hear, it as clear as the nose on your face, with industry standard display features and patented cursor measurement.
