Matador™ is the award winning industry standard software for advanced monitoring of your entire broadcast chain, management of your network assets and cost control.

Monitor:

Monitor your entire broadcast chain in real time. Monitoring dynamic data provides a foundation for accurate unified output, device, alarm and enterprise monitoring.

3D Interface
Dynamically generates a multi-layered unified output and process monitoring view of the entire broadcasting service chain. The single point for essential information ensures accuracy, clarifies details and relationships within the broadcast infrastructure and improves operators understanding and response time to alarms.

Device Analysis
Analyse devices connected to the network via any connection including SNMP, serial, or GPI/GPO. Many monitoring packages are specific to SNMP or proprietary standards. FBBT allows operators to see all networked devices.

Comprehensive Monitoring
Offer improved monitoring by allowing users to interrogate devices before adding them to the active service path. Basic monitoring requires devices to be part of the active path which triggers many outages.


Manage:

Manage network assets by using historical performance to optimize for future performance. Managers, enigineers, and IT professionals can now share and make strategic decisions with exact device utilization and performance data.

Report Generation
