LOS ANGELES -- Mixed Signals, Inc., providers of digital content monitoring systems, announced the deployment of their Sentry(TM) Digital Content Monitor in the Adelphia Cable System in Ontario, Calif.

"The engineering, IT and media services groups will have one system we can use to keep track of our entire digital broadcast network, even as we add services in the future."

Mixed Signals' Sentry Digital Content Monitor is the most comprehensive digital enterprise monitoring solution for cable operators, satellite providers and telecommunications companies. In addition to real-time monitoring, Sentry provides historical reporting and alerting options based on network-specific business rules, enabling operators to gain insight and solve problems in their digital networks.
