CN-100 MANAGER SOFTWARE

The CN-100 Manager software tool allows multiple users to be connected to one chassis and control the CN-100 locally or remotely via a 10/100 Ethernet LAN. The CN-100 Manager can be used to load redefined tests or user-defined tests with full access to traffic generation, monitoring, QoS statistics and histograms, and full-line rate capture. Save test results with detailed trending and report generation.

Chassis

CN-100p/r

The CN-100p (portable) is a portable 2-Slot chassis designed for field technicians to easily perform daily installation and maintenance for today’s electrical and fiber networks. The CN-100r (rack mount) is portable unit with rack mount hardware that can easily mount in a rack.  Front Panel Keypad, LCD, Alarm LED's and LCD display alarms, errors, and traffic status while providing a PASS/FAIL result. The 2-slot chassis can support any variety of physical interface modules.

CN-1000

The CN-1000 is a high density chassis designed to maximize your testing capabilities.  The 12-Slot chassis can support any variety of physical interface modules.  For higher density applications just assign a master chassis and daisy chain additional units.

Interface Modules

4-Port 10/100/1000 Dual Media Ethernet Module

Each port has a RJ-45 for 10/100/1000 Mbps Copper and a SFP Socket for Gigabit Fiber (multimode or single mode) with media connection auto-sense. The dual media interface provides a space saving cost effective solution for testing Ethernet. Each module generates, monitors and captures Ethernet traffic at Full Line rate.

The ATM interface modules allow full line rate generation, monitoring and capture across each individual port. Dual port ATM interfaces are available for OC-12/OC-3 (software selectable), DS3, and E3 rates. The multi-rate cards provide a high-density, yet cost effective solution for your ATM testing requirements.
