All major WAN interfaces, including V.10/V.11, V.24/V.28/RS-232C, V.35 and V.36/

RS-449/422/423 are already built into the instrument mainframe; X.21 (with

J2277A external cable V.36/RS-449 to DB15) and RS-530 (with external cable

J2278A V.36/RS-449 to DB25) are also available. Other interfaces, including

ISDN basic rate interfaces (BRI) S/T/U and primary rate interfaces (PRI), ATM

STM-1/OC-3c, E3/DS3 Cell and Frame, ATM 155 UTP, E1/T1, HSSI, DDS 4-wire,

are available as slide-in modules or as undercradle for 10/100 Ethernet, Gigabit,

Token Ring and FDDI, STM-4c/ OC-12c ATM.

Monitoring of LAN data over WAN and ATM is a standard feature. Real-time

monitoring of network conditions is an Advisor powerful testing capability to

dig deeply into the data if needed.

Because the Advisor is a multitasking instrument, you can perform any of the

active stimulus/response tests while the analyzer simultaneously monitors their

effect on the network.

The Advisor traffic generation is another powerful tool; it allows the

transmission of virtually any type of message or frame onto the network.

To get statistical information about the data on your network, the Advisor will

analyze every frame and count user definable events. A number of counters

have been pre-defined.

The Advisor is equipped with standard Bit Error Rate Testing (BERT) and is

capable of generating BERT patterns onto V Series, T1, E1, E3, or DS3 WAN

links.

No matter if your testing needs are for Frame Relay at E3/DS3 or HSSI speeds

or for low speed links, such as Async and Bisync, the Advisor provides all of

this functionality under one single handle solution.

WAN testing speeds from 50 bps to 52 Mbps

Built-in all major WAN interfaces into the instrument mainframe, including

V.10/V.11, V.24/V.28/RS-232C, V.35, V.36/RS-449/422/423/530, X.21
