Agilent / HP E4209B
Cell Protocol Processor
Description
This cell protocol processor provides real time and post processing protocol testing features for the Agilent Broadband Series Test System (BSTS).
The basic CPP assembly and system software can perform monitoring and simulation of ATM, F4 and F5 OAM, and AAL1 protocols.
Software required to provide the features described below is provided with the CPP hardware.
Further upper layer testing can be performed using additional software packages.
It can be configured with many different Line Interfaces at rates from 1.5 to 622 Mb/s, including: Agilent E1616A 1.5/45Mb/s (DS1/DS3), Agilent E1610A 34Mb/s (E3), Agilent E1695A 45Mb/s (DS3), Agilent E1697A 155Mb/s (STS-3c/STM-1) Optical, as well as E4219A ATM Network Impairment Emulation Module.
It can generate up to eight streams of user defined ATM traffic.
It also provides both real time and post processed measurements on ATM traffic.
Measurements are automatically synchronized between devices in the test session.
