Packaged in a compact
1RU form factor, dedicated GigE Interfaces are available for management
and Load Generation. The OMG can be operated stand-alone in a single
location, or in a distributed, coordinated, multi-site configuration
where loading multiple OMG systems provide visibility of service quality
across the entire network.

The OTT Media Grinder (OMG) simulates thousands of OTT clients (iPhone, iPad, etc) with
multiple user-defined behaviors. Simulating multiple client pools
playing real assets, to the end or abruptly terminating, OMG gives you
in-depth and unparalleled visibility of adaptive bit rate 'gear
changes', buffering, as well as server and network problems.
To quantify the unique QoS/QoE performance factors for Over-The-Top Video, Pixelmetrix has developed the comprehensive VideoMargin™ Metrics, for complete insight into the OTT delivery - measuring network, HTTP and video layer performance.
The seven VideoMargin™ parameters measure each aspect of the delivery domain spanning content server, network, authentication, individual client behavior and collective client behavior as well. Consolidated 'service availability' is also provided as a single number in a familiar '5 nines' type of representation.
