Analysis/Emulation Card covers OC3/12 and STM1/4.
Press Release Summary:
As dual OC3/12 and STM1/4 PCIe card, LightSpeed 1000 may be used for protocol analysis and emulation of ATM, POS, RAW, and Ethernet traffic. It has 2 GB DDR2 RAM as well as GbE and USB 2.0 interfaces and comes with software for overall monitoring, BERT, emulation, and protocol analysis. Multiple cards can be accommodated in rack PC for simultaneous analysis of 4 or more signals, and all interfaces can capture and transmit at wirespeed to/from hard disk.
Original Press Release:
GL Releases OC3/12 and STM1/4 Analysis/Emulation Card
Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA - September 30, 2009 - GL Communications Inc., announced today the release of its new OC3/12 and STM1/4 Analysis and Emulation Card. In a statement released to the press, Mr. Jagdish Vadalia, senior manager said, "LightSpeed 1000 is our new Dual OC3/12 STM1/4 PCI-Express card for protocol analysis and emulation of ATM, POS, RAW, and Ethernet traffic. The card also sports 2 GigaBytes of DDR2 RAM, a GigE, and a USB 2.0 interface making this card one of the most versatile and powerful cards in GL's repertoire". He added, "LightSpeed 1000 comes with software for overall monitoring, BERT, emulation, and protocol analysis with a price tag that compares very favorably with similar test instruments at 3 times the price".
Mr. Vadalia provided the following details, "Multiple cards are possible in a rack PC for analysis of 4 or more signals simultaneously. When LightSpeed 1000 is enclosed, the USB 2.0 interface is used to connect with a Notebook PC. The GigE port provides independent Ethernet testing at wirespeed for applications such as BERT and RFC 2544. A unique feature of the card is the capability to capture and transmit at wirespeed to/from hard disk on all interfaces".
Modes of Operation:
POS Mode - Packet over SONET / SDH
POS, or Packet over SONET/SDH at OC3/12 and STM1/4 is supported at full rates over dual interfaces. Access, capture, analysis, and emulation of PPP and HDLC, all carrying IP traffic in real-time makes this card useful to many applications including Routing, Deep Packet Inspection, and other Internet traffic applications.
ATM - Asynchronous Transfer Mode
ATM at OC3/12 STM1/4 is supported at full rates over dual interfaces. Access, capture, analysis, and emulation of ATM cells at wire-speed make this interface capability applicable for wide ranging next generation networks.
RAW or Transparent Mode
Raw or transparent mode allows direct access to the SONET / SDH payload for BERT, data transmit and receive applications.
About GL Communications Inc.
Founded in 1986, GL Communications Inc. is a leading supplier of test, monitoring, and analysis equipment for TDM, Wireless, IP and VoIP networks. Unlike conventional test equipment, GL's test platforms provide visualization, capture, storage, and convenient features like portability, remotability, and scripting.
GL's TDM Analysis & Emulation line of products includes T1, E1, T3, E3, OC-3, STM-1, analog four-wire, and analog two-wire interface cards, external portable pods, and complete system solutions. Capabilities include voiceband traffic analysis and emulation across all traffic types (voice, digits, tones, fax, modem), all protocols (ISDN, SS7, GR-303, Frame Relay, HDLC, V5.X, ATM, GSM, GPRS, etc.), and with capacities up to thousands of channels.
GL's VoIP and IP products generate / analyze thousands of calls / traffic simultaneously with traffic types such as frames, packets, voice files, digits, video, tones, noise, and fax using G.711, G.729, AMR, EVRC, GSM and a range of other codecs. Additional features include visual analysis, real-time listening, and recording. The product line also includes Ethernet / IP Testing capability that simulates and checks frame transport and throughput parameters of Ethernet and IP networks, including delay, errors and other impairments.
GL's Voice Quality Testing (VQT) product line complements all of GL's products. Using ITU-standard algorithms (PAMS, PSQM, and PESQ), GL's VQT provides a widely excepted solution across the telecom industry. Voice Quality Testing across multiple networks (T1, E1, T3, E3, OC-3, VoIP, Wireless, and Landline) are all available.
GL's Wireless Products perform protocol analysis and voice quality assessment on GSM, CDMA and UMTS networks. Connections can be made to any wireless phone with automated call control, GPS mapping and real-time signal measurements.
GL's Echo Canceller testing solutions provide the broadest range of simulation and analysis, including compliance testing per G.168 and G.160 across TDM, IP, VoIP and Wireless networks. GL's wireless VQT solutions help assessing impairments to voice quality such as poor mobile phone quality, voice compression and decompression algorithms, delay, loss and gain in speech levels, noise, acoustic and landline echo, and other distortions are easily assessed and accurately measured.
GL's Handheld data testers can test a wide variety of communications facilities and equipment including T1, fractional T1, E1, fractional E1, T3 and E3 modems, multiplexers, CSU, DSUs, T1 CSUs, DTUs, NTUs and TIUs and more. The testers provide convenience, economy, and portability for almost any interface, including RS232, RS-422, RS-530, X.21, T1, E1, T3, E3, and many others.
GL's Network Surveillance and Monitoring products include Probes for TDM, IP, VoIP, ATM, and Wireless networks. An open standards based approach provides a scalable, feature rich, real-time access to network intelligence. Centralized or distributed access, efficient transport and database loading allow compatibility with 3rd party and standards based monitoring systems.
