QForce uses cutting edge unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV/UAS's) and technologies to produce efficient, accurate and cost effective measurement solutions within the broadcast, telecommunications and defense RF environments.

If your station is part of the FCC REPACK project, this service is completely reimbursable to most of our customers, plus QCommunications (parent company to QForce) offers a 100% guarantee towards reimbursement. This means that if by some chance that in the unlikely event the FCC will not reimburse the services, our customers are not out anything and all invoices collected to date will be returned and no further action will be taken. (This is after allowing QComm to work for correction prior). We have a sound relationship working with the FCC and working within the Form 399 process. We also offer the reimbursement submittal of your full Comprehensive Coverage Verification via Field Study to the FCC as an additional benefit to our customers.

Substantial amounts of RF data are collected by our systems, more than by historical means. We produce quality Antenna Measurement Reports detailing the operation of your system as well as any issues that have been detected. We also recommend ways of improving these issues. Preliminary reports are available the day of the inspection and final report within 10 days, not weeks.

Title- The Transition from SDI to ST 2110 IP and ST 2059 PTP - Best Practices and Lessons Learned

Abstract- This presentation will be a tutorial on what you need to know to understand the challenges we face in making the transition from SDI to an IP based transport for video, audio and data. Karl will share what he has learned by being involved in several ST 2110 and ST 2059 deployments with a focus on what questions early adopters wish they had asked. New troubleshooting methodologies are required to visualize variable delay across the network and how critical multilayer trend measurements can be made on the stream to improve QoS and QoE.

Speaker Bio- Karl Kuhn is a Principal Solutions Architect at Telestream specializing in next gen test and measurement of ST 2110 IP, ST 2059 PTP, 4K and UHD, HDR and WCG, and transmission.
