3G (SMPTE 424) Test Equipment Question

Not sure if this is the write forums for this ... and if not, please redirect me

Is it possible that one 3G test signal generator performs differently than another? I have a Phabrix SX and an Evertz 5601MSC -- I had one scenario where a monitor displayed the Phabrix signal and not the Evertz signal. Same signal format, etc. Unfortunately i cannot replicate the problem at the moment so hard for me to chase the problem.
  • This is the correct forum.

    Anything is possible.  I am not familiar with the Evertz 5601MSC, but Evertz make very good quality gear.  We do have a Phabrix SX in our lab here, and have never had issues with the signals that it produces.

    Do you have a WFM  such as the Tek WFM8300? - It may be that there is something in the ANC space of one or the other that is confusing the monitor, and you could see if there was a difference with the WFM.
