GL’s High-Density 16 port T1 E1 Analysis Tool
Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA - June 06, 2022 - GL Communications Inc., a global leader in telecom test and measurement solutions, addressed the press regarding their high-density T1 E1 analysis tool called tScan16™. This solution has 16 Receive-only T1 E1 ports optimized for high performance voice and data capture, monitoring, and analysis.
“GL’s tScan16™ provides greater density, increased ports, and reduced power as compared to other TDM analysis tools on the market. The boards (with Direct Memory Access) are significantly faster, more efficient, and well-suited for High-Density Cabling”, said Vijay Kulkarni, CEO of GL Communications.
He further added, “the tScan16™ consists of a PCI Express board housed in a host Windows® computer. Customers can use their own computer or GL can provide the PC as a rackmount (1U) or portable (Lunchbox) PC. Also included is a compact 16 port Breakout box for convenient and dense connecting to the TDM network under test. GL provides the necessary cable to connect the Breakout box to the PCI Express board. If customers elect to purchase the PC from GL, then GL will perform the full hardware and software installation giving the customer the ability to rapidly deploy the solution and perform analysis”.
The tScan16™ Breakout box is used to receive the T1 E1 traffic on 16 ports for the tScan16™ application. It consists of 8 pairs of Line and Equipment RJ45c ports. Users need to connect straight cables to Line side and Cross-over cables to Equipment side to receive the signals from both Line and Equipment.
tScan16™ T1 E1 analyzers supports both 32-bit and 64-bit applications. 64-bit support improves the performance of the associated protocol analyzers such as ISDN, ISUP, GSM and allow users to monitor hundreds to thousands of signaling links simultaneously and continuously. Also, provides improved processing and response time for Statistics, Call Data Records, Search, and other such functions.
