Product Introduction:

FC-AE Network Analyzer is a FC-AE network data acquisition and analysis tool that uses a portable reinforced laptop. The product is equipped with 2/4/8 acquisition ports and supports configurable port speeds of 1.0625/2.125/4.25Gbps. The FC-AE network analyzer is suitable for the collection, monitoring, recording, online/offline analysis, statistics, and other needs of FC-AE network data traffic, and can be connected to any location on the network. The patented BYPASS technology achieves lossless data acquisition without any interference to the tested FC-AE network, providing an efficient solution for debugging, verification, and fault location.

Product Features

• Provide 2, 4, and 8 independent FC-AE data acquisition ports

• Supports configurable communication rates of 1.0625Gbps, 2.125Gbps, and 4.25Gbps

• 100% data line speed capture, real-time saving of captured data frames

• Supports two working modes: point-to-point and lossless bypass acquisition

• Support multiple protocol analyses, such as FC-FS, FC-LS, FC-AE-ASM, FC-AE-1553, FC-AV, etc

• Support full protocol frame parsing from SOF to EOF, and provide protocol alarm function

• Support ICD parsing and provide out of bounds alarm function for ICD engineering quantities that exceed boundaries

• Provide multiple forms of data display (such as classification lists, sequential lists, etc.)

• Support real-time performance monitoring and statistics, including bandwidth, latency, error types and numbers

• Support the generation of multiple statistical charts and provide data statistics based on ports and VLs

• Support ICD filtering and protocol filtering, and only report and display data frames that meet the filtering criteria

• Support offline analysis, can export offline analysis reports based on offline analysis results

• Supports IRIG-B clock synchronization with a clock synchronization accuracy of 0.5us

• Support 4-channel (2-input, 2-input) event I/O triggering

Product Application

The FC-AE network analyzer supports two methods: point-to-point acquisition and lossless bypass acquisition. The point-to-point acquisition is directly connected to the monitoring port of the tested FC-AE terminal device or FC-AE switch. Taking the four port FC-AE network analyzer as an example (similar to the 2-port and 8-port), the usage of the lossless bypass acquisition mode will be explained.

As shown in the above figure, 1 and 2 are a set of FC-AE acquisition interfaces that support the acquisition of one physical link, while 3 and 4 are another set of FC-AE acquisition interfaces that support the acquisition of a second FC-AE physical link. This acquisition method will not affect the data exchange between the two end systems.
