Monitoring of up to Eight Signaling Channels on Four PCM Links
For PCM30, PCM24 and V./X. (V.24, V.35, X.21)
Simple Operation as with a PC with MS-DOS and Windows
Programmed Applications for Fast Problem Analysis
Applications
The Protocol Tester K1103 has been developed for network supervision and
network analysis of CCS#7, GSM, CDMA, ISDN D-channel, X.25 and V5.x
protocols. A maximum of four different PCM links (T1/S2M) or
V./X. links with up to eight signaling links (64 kbit/s, 56 kbit/s,
16 kbit/s) can be supervised simultaneously.
The Protocol Tester K1103 features a Windows 3.11 based user interface.
Analysis of the different layers of the communications protocols can be
performed online or offline. The auto-restart mechanism enables long-term
measurements to be carried out, e.g., following a power failure.
User-specific prepared measurement tools for supporting measurements in the
field are also supplied. Automatic evaluation of these measurements,
alphanumerically and/or in graphics form, is performed by a special
statistics program package. A storage capacity of 2.5 MB in the main
memory and 500 MB on the hard disk is available for recording the
measurement data. A floppy disk drive can additionally be used for recording
measured data.
Design
The Protocol Tester K1103 consists of a PC card with 8 MB RAM, a 540 MB
hard disk and a 1.44 MB floppy disk. A TFT color display, which can be read
without impairment even under bad lighting conditions, is used as the display.
Graphics control is by means of a VGA card.
The keyboard can, if necessary, be removed from the tester in order to enable
more comfortable working. MS-DOS 6.2 is used as the operating system.
Line activities are displayed on LEDs on the front of the instrument.
The actual measuring hardware employs obsolescence-proof technology. The
processing power, for example, is increased by using transputers.
A serial interface for remote control, a printer interface (serial/parallel),
as well as a VGA interface for external monitors, are available.
Special Features
The K1103 features particularly easy handling. This comprises:
Putting the test hardware and software into service
Connecting to the PCM links (S2M/T1) or V./X. links
