DEVA’s DB7012 – Professional DAB/DAB+ Monitoring Receiver is an elegant and smart monitoring solution specifically developed by our engineers to fully comply with the Digital Audio Broadcasting standard while strictly adhering to the signature features underlying the company’s products. A highly practical design coupled with a wide range of features makes this device a guarantee of slick and smooth performance.
As a leading manufacturer of advanced broadcasting technology, it is DEVA’s aim to constantly supply top-of-the-range gear in keeping with the major industry trends, which is why our team has created a top-quality line of products dedicated to Digital Radio Broadcasting. As part of that line, the DB7012 fully meets the ETSI EN 300 401 DAB standard. Additionally, it offers support for Program Associated Data (PAD), as well as all standard bitrates and VBR and automatically displays live metadata. While the signal is being monitored and logged, the DB7012 measures the following DAB signals: RSSI, SNR, CNR, FIC Quality, FIB Errors, FFT Offset and the Left & Right Audio level values and stores them, thereby allowing for future analysis. The collected data can easily be downloaded via a standard FTP client. As an additional feature, the tool guarantees that there is no interruption of the broadcast signal. This is achieved through the provided local alarm options and online notifications via rear-panel alarm GPOs, E-mail and SNMP in case there is audio loss or change in the DAB signal and the Left and Right Audio Levels. Therefore, maintenance staff can be quick to respond and prevent prolonged signal loss.
The BandScan function of the DB7012 presents an overview of all DAB/DAB+ signals available, plus their RF signal strength. BandScans are possible within any section of Band III. The generated spectrum diagram shows the RF Level vs. the channels.
