Multi-Protocol Analyzer (MPA)

Anytime, Anywhere, Any Bit

Highlights and Benefits

  • Multi-protocol testing in a compact form factor system (1U x 19 in chassis)
  • Field upgradeable, rack-mounted platform with up to five test modules
  • All ports can be configured independently and operated simultaneously
  • Each port supports 21 rates and protocols
  • Multi-Protocol Module (MPM) supports OTN, SONET/SDH, Ethernet and Fiber Channel
  • Intuitive interface with a simple, consistent setup and workflow across all test modules
  • Every test feature accessible by remote GUI and automation scripting
  • Supports 20 simultaneous users
  • Industry proven platform provides efficient and cost effective support and service
  • Cloud-based management option for each module
  • Most cost-effective compact solution for multi-protocol testing
  • Significantly reduces the amount of testing equipment, required footprint, and test time
  • One single platform for multi-protocol testing requirements which will grow as needs change and expand, allowing modules to be easily added on-site and new capabilities to be downloaded
  • 110/240VAC or -48VDC input power options
