DILITHIUM INTRODUCES ENHANCED DILITHIUM NETWORKS ANALYZER.Dilithium Networks, a provider of multimedia solutions, has introduced network monitoring The term network monitoring describes the use of a system that constantly monitors a computer network for slow or failing systems and that notifies the network administrator in case of outages via email, pager or other alarms. support in a new release of the Dilithium Networks Analyzer (DNA DNA: see nucleic acid. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes. ), a protocol analysis and test tool for 3G-324M markets. Dilithium Networks' DNA is the premier test tool for H.324M/3G-324M as defined by 3GPP GPP Government Performance Project GPP General Purpose Processor GPP General Physical Preparedness GPP Gambian People's Party GPP Good Pharmacy Practice GPP Gross Primary Productivity GPP Green Procurement Program GPP Generic Packetized Protocol and 3GPP2. The DNA's new features draw on Dilithium Networks' expertise in multimedia protocols, as well as on the experience accumulated by Dilithium Networks and its customers utilizing the DNA to troubleshoot live deployment quality and interoperability issues. The Dilithium Networks Analyzer 2.1 includes network monitoring functionality that allows the device to be used for passive call monitoring A call center feature that lets managers listen in on agents' calls in order to improve agent performance. Also called "agent monitoring" and "call logging," it can be done in real time with or without the agent's knowledge, or calls can be recorded for later retrieval. as required in a sniffing application. The network monitoring feature allows capture of call bitstream to file, offline analysis and display of call control as well as media channels. The DNA 2.1 also includes many other important features that lead to enhanced protocol testing and analysis, new interoperability troubleshooting and problem determination capabilities. H.245 User Input Indication support; additional trace features and codec (1) (enCOder/DECoder) A hardware circuit that performs analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) and digital-to-analog (DAC) conversion. When analog signals are entered into a computer, cellphone or other device via a microphone or video source such as VHS tape or analog TV, enhancements are offered in the latest release. "Dilithium Networks has put in considerable resources behind the DNA incorporating the requirements of network operators and equipment suppliers for troubleshooting interoperability issues," said Harish Gandhi, senior product marketing manager for Dilithium Networks. "The new network monitoring feature enables network quality optimization and has therefore generated considerable interest from customers that are preparing to trial and deploy 3G services worldwide." Dilithium Networks' DNA offers a powerful and versatile tool for interoperability testing, troubleshooting and H.324M/3G-324M-based videotelephony Videotelephony A means of simultaneous, two-way communication comprising both audio and video elements. Participants in a video telephone call can both see and hear each other in real time. service optimization for network equipment manufacturers, handset manufacturers and mobile operators deploying multimedia services over 3G networks. The DNA is designed for diagnosing, analyzing and monitoring several aspects of videotelephony calls, including call control, connection setup and tear down, and voice and video codec (1) A hardware circuit that converts analog video (NTSC, PAL, SECAM) into digital code and vice versa. The term may refer to only the A/D and D/A conversion, or it may include the compression technique for further reducing the signal (definition #2 below). See codec. quality. Operators and OEMs are using the device to test new terminals and their interoperability with network equipment.
