At SCTE TechExpo 24, Witbe will showcase the power of its automated testing and proactive monitoring technology. At booth 1612, attendees will see the benefits of Witbe’s comprehensive technology suite for cable video service providers and set-top box operators, measuring their viewers’ true quality of experience (QoE). Witbe will also highlight its plug-and-play technology that tests and monitors video services on real devices, including a new and improved version of the company’s popular Remote Eye Controller (REC), which transforms the software into a centralized video monitoring application. With this major update, the REC offers a virtual Network Operation Center (NOC) where teams can supervise, control, and instantly identify service errors on their real testing devices from anywhere in the world.

“We’re excited to be back at SCTE TechExpo, a special event that brings the cable industry together,” said Marie-Véronique Lacaze, president and co-founder of Witbe. “Witbe’s integrated technology assists video service providers with every step of the video delivery process, from early QA testing to post-launch testing in the field and live service monitoring. Our dedicated approach to testing on real devices empowers providers to offer their customers a strong QoE, which is essential to standing out in today’s competitive video market. Witbe’s new virtual NOC makes their lives even easier, offering a one-stop shop for all their video monitoring needs.”

New Remote Eye Controller
At SCTE TechExpo 24, Witbe will preview a new and improved REC, which allows video service providers to supervise their service running on real testing devices from anywhere in the world. The largest update ever launched for the application turns it into a comprehensive video monitoring station, where teams can interact with their devices in real time and immediately identify service errors. This instantly readable feedback makes the REC a virtual NOC, a collaborative remote workspace built around real devices running in real markets.

The new REC is also packed with exciting features, including a redesigned mosaic view with maximized streams, the ability to quickly record a live video feed at any time, and expanded team customization options. Visitors to Witbe’s booth at SCTE TechExpo 24 can preview the virtual NOC update in person before it is fully revealed to the public and launched later this year.

Plug-and-Play Automated Testing and Monitoring Technology

Through the Witbe Software Suite, teams can easily program and run automated tests, monitor their live video service, and compare test results in Smartgate, Witbe’s observability platform. The comprehensive technology enables collaboration, alerting teams in real time whenever errors strike and making it simple to send video recordings of issues to elevate and resolve them.

All of Witbe’s technology is built with efficiency, scalability, and ease of use in mind. It can be deployed quickly — enabling service providers to see results in record time.
