Suddenlink Communications Picks Mixed Signals for Comprehensive Video Content Monitoring

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Mixed Signals, the leading provider of digital content monitoring solutions, today announced that it has been chosen by Suddenlink Communications, a top-10 U.S. cable broadband provider serving approximately 1.3 million subscribers, to ensure optimal video quality for its customers in North Carolina, West Virginia, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, California and elsewhere.

“Our top priority has always been to provide our customers with outstanding products and service, which includes delivery of exceptional programming, free from audio and video errors,” said John Heintz, Director of Digital Video for Suddenlink. “Mixed Signals offers a premier solution that quickly identifies and helps to resolve complex video issues before our subscribers are affected. This allows us to ensure our viewers enjoy an exceptional quality of experience every time they tune in.”

Suddenlink investigated a variety of solutions to help ensure their subscribers’ quality of experience (QoE), and ultimately chose Mixed Signals’ solution because of its ability to monitor programming at the MPEG, IP and quality levels. This comprehensive and scalable monitoring enables Suddenlink to better manage its networks and more quickly identify the root cause of issues, such as tiling, video freeze, video black and the loss of single and multi-channel audio.

“The success Suddenlink has experienced with Mixed Signals’ content monitoring solution is further evidence of its dedication to providing outstanding customer service,” said Eric Conley, CEO of Mixed Signals. “In today’s market, ensuring exceptional service and reducing subscriber are crucial to reducing ongoing costs. With Sentry once again being deployed by a major cable operator, we see the industry demonstrating its commitment to guaranteeing quality of service.”

Mixed Signals’ S2E (Source to Edge) solution, which includes its Sentry and Medius products, can be easily deployed in all key locations of a cable network – from network operation centers (NOC), headends to hubs – enabling operators to comprehensively monitor content throughout their networks. The single rack unit (RU) form factor for all Mixed Signals’ products ensures easy deployment in even the smallest hubs, and their ability to be remotely managed eliminates the need for technicians to administer units installed in remote locations.
