NETWORK DATA ANALYZER
MD6430A
50 bit/s to 10 Mbit/s
One Instrument for Installation and Maintenance
The MD6430A Network Data Analyzer can measure errors on 13 dif-
ferent interfaces for leased lines (64 kbit/s to 6.3 Mbit/s), ISDN (BRI,
PRI), and V/X series interfaces, making it suitable for installation and
maintenance of a variety of networks.
Measurements include bit errors, alarms, delay time, frequency, dig-
ital level measurements, user pattern send/trace, etc., all of which
can be displayed on the large color LCD.
Error performance (ITU-T G.821, G.826, M.2100) is available with
various pseudorandom patterns and user patterns up to 1024 char-
acters. Frame Relay measurement function, ISDN signaling function
(optional), and a simultaneous two-channel monitoring function are
also provided. Single button “quick” function and touch-screen en-
sure easy operation. This unit offers the user sophisticated functions
required for installation and maintenance in a small compact unit.
Features
•
One unit supports installation and maintenance of leased lines,
ISDN, and frame relay
•
Single button quick test operation
•
Lightweight, with a battery-operated function
Applications
•
Many applications ranging from low-speed modems to high-
speed digital lines
The MD6430A can evaluate the quality of lines ranging from low-speed
modems to high-speed digital lines spanning 50 bit/s to 10 Mbit/s.
•
Support for various interfaces
The MD6430A supports G.703 64k, I.430/I-430a 192k, G.703/G.704/
I.431 1.5M, 2M, 2M CMI, 6.3M, V.24/V.28, V.35, V.36, RS-449, X.20,
X.21, TTL/CMOS interfaces in a number of optional units designed
to meet customer needs.
•
Wide variety of measurement functions
Various measurements, such as error, alarm, clock slip, delay, fre-
quency, and digital level can be performed. Also, can send user pat-
terns with tracing functions.
•
Frame relay measurements
Frame relay network connections (conforming to PVC and ITU-T
Q.933 Annex A) can be tested by the MD6430A. The user can also
monitor the congestion status such as FECN, BECN, and CLLM.
•
Optional ISDN signaling functions (BRI, PRI)
The unit can be connected to ISDN networks so that both voice com-
munication and error measurement can be performed.
•
Error data analysis and storage functions
Error data can be collected in log or histogram format. This data can
also be stored in internal memory or on a floppy disk for later analysis.
•
Touch-screen
The touch-screen, large color LCD, and pop-up menus provide a
much better GUI operating environment.
•
Battery operation
When a commercial power supply is not available, the optional bat-
tery pack provides operation for up to 3 hours, and 5 hours in power
save operation.
•
Full range of error measurement screens
Various measurement items can be displayed simultaneously for error
count, error rate, block error count, clock slip count, character error
count, error performance (G.821, G.826, M.2100), HDLC error (bad
frame, abort frame), and various types of alarms. The user can select
the desired items and can display them using the zoom function.
