USB Host Testing: Set-Top Boxes (STBs) and DTV Sets

Host Testing for Set-Top Boxes & DTV Sets
Are your set-top boxes (STBs), DTV sets and DVRs
stable enough for real-world deployment?
» A part of USBHost Tester: USB Host Testing solution
The growing sophistication of digital TV technology is reflected in the new products and features being rolled out by the STB industry. Many of these new features involve connectivity with external devices, primarily via USB.

USBHost Tester performs both functional and core, or low-level, testing on USB hosts embedded in STBs.

The functionality testing checks the host's support for, and seamless operation with, a variety of USB peripheral devices, including:

  • Storage devices (Mass Storage class)
  • Keyboard or mouse (HID class)
  • Media devices (Audio and MTP classes)
The core testing verifies basic design requirements, primarily:
  • Stability – for a reliable and smooth customer experience.
  • Performance – for high quality media applications
The comprehensive testing capabilities of Jungo's USBHost Tester, which include over 50 pre-defined, low-level tests, ensure that your STB functions faultlessly and efficiently when connected to any USB client.
