MILPITAS, Calif. -- JDSU (Nasdaq: JDSU; TSX: JDU) today announced major new features to its industry- leading digital video and broadcast test and monitoring analyzers, the DTS-200 and DTS-330. The features bolster the products' ability to ensure efficient and reliable deployment of advanced digital and IP video services, such as video on demand, IPTV or digital video broadcast, for satellite, broadcast, telecommunications or cable providers around the world. JDSU's portfolio of digital video and IP video test, measurement and monitoring solutions, will be on display at NAB 2006 in Las Vegas, April 24-27, booth number SU 4201.

The company introduced the JDSU SimulTrak, a gigabit Ethernet (GbE) interface module that enables the DTS-330 and 200 to perform simultaneous analysis and monitoring of up to 256 MPEG transport streams contained within a gigabit Ethernet pipe. The SimulTrak module also provides Ethernet layer statistics that a network operator can use to quickly troubleshoot IP layer issues. Since digital content traversing through a system operator's internal network is converging to an IP routed multicast/unicast system, this ability to quickly identify routing problems is critical. JDSU is also adding to the DTS product line the ability to conduct test analysis of digital program insertion (DPI) data, the means by which ads are placed on digital video programming. These features broaden the capabilities of the DTS line to address the need for accurate, proactive and in-depth signal analysis when faced with delivering quality advanced broadband, digital video and IP services.

"JDSU is leveraging its extensive video expertise to deliver digital video and IPTV test innovation to ensure quality viewing for consumers and the retention of subscribers," said Kevin Oliver, vice president of marketing for the Cable Networks business unit of JDSU's Communications Test and Measurement Product Group. "Speed and certainty are critical when resolving complex digital and IP TV problems -- SimulTrak is a significant advancement for IP transport analysis."
