Snell
selects additional PHABRIX SxA’s for test and measurement
July 29, 2009
Source: PHABRIX PHABRIX,
a provider of test and measurement instruments based in the UK, announced today
that Snell, the company formed through the merger of Pro-bel and Snell & Wilcox,
has placed an order for several more PHABRIX SxA’s to compliment the PHABRIX
SxA’s already in use.
At IBC 2008, the PHABRIX SxA was released
as the industry's first hand-held test and measurement device to support comprehensive
3G/HD/SD measurement to the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers
(SMPTE) standards.
The PHABRIX SxA received considerable interest when
it was awarded the prestigious IABM Peter Wayne award for design and innovation
at IBC. Since its release over 300 units have been established in companies world-wide,
many into high-end broadcast manufacturers such as Snell who require an easily
portable solution in their test department.
"We are delighted that
Snell has continued to purchase more PHABRIX SxA’s to support their internal
test and measurement needs’, said Phillip Adams managing director and founder
of PHABRIX;
“With tools for quick and automatic SDI compliance
testing, the PHABRIX SxA provides a much needed portable laboratory quality instrument
able to record event logging. The combination of a generator and analyser complete
with monitoring on the one instrument has made it a quality, cost effective solution
allowing the purchase of many more portable units for the same price as a traditional
bench instrument”
Gavin Walker, Snell’s Chief Technical Officer
commented; "Before the PHABRIX SxA’s we had to share one bench bound
resource. Now we have enough SxA’s for each engineer to have access to one."
The PHABRIX SxA gives the professional broadcast engineer a compact
and easy to use solution for both in-studio support and field broadcast applications,
where portability is needed.
PHABRIX will be exhibiting at IBC 2009 Hall
8 E23 11-15 September.
