Product description
Description
With the TAP CURIOUS is the perfect tool for monitoring, analysis and troubleshooting of real-time Ethernet networks is available. Delay, jitter, and CRC error in a network can be captured and analyzed quickly and corrected or resolved.
About his test ports, the device is integrated into the network to be analyzed. The TAP CURIOUS behaves in purely passive. This passivity ensures that there is no flow delay (Zero Delay) and is the network in no way affected by the TAP CURIOUS - the data traffic can also undistorted mitgeschnitten. With a time stamp of 1 ns, the TAP CURIOUS the ability for an extremely exact timing analysis. Useful features such as trigger functions and filter also simplify the search for errors in the network. The device operates in full duplex mode, this means that both the transmitter and the receiver side parallel in both directions can be monitored. The abgegriffenen data from the network, with a 20-byte trailer (including the time stamp contains), and via the uplink port on a PC or laptop for further analysis. For the analysis of the data can be used, among other things, the freely available software Wireshark for a plugin for problem-free connection is deployed.
Thanks to its compact and robust plastic housing is the only 150 grams heavy device not only for working in the laboratory suitable but also for day-to-day field. For safe transport, the device in a sturdy plastic case.
Characteristics
Trigger function:
The TAP CURIOUS has on the front of a 4-pin plug with a digital input and output. With this, it is possible to create useful trigger conditions, for example, to narrow down specifically to find and fix any errors occurring sporadically. On the digital output can be, for example, an acoustic signal as soon as an error in the attachment of the alarm log occurs. In addition to the digital output there are also 5 freely configurable LED are available, for example, the appearance of a faulty transmission optically directly on the device. With the digital input can be used, for example, to start the recording at any time.
Filter functions:
The TAP CURIOUS is equipped with extensive filter functions with the help of specifically to certain values can be searched for and so that the analyzed data volumes can be reduced significantly. Errors occurring in the network can thus be eliminated faster found and. The filter functions of the TAP CURIOUS can be easily and quickly via the graphical, browser-based interface of the TAP CURIOUS configure. Two modes ensure that both for beginners as well as experts no desires remain open.
Easy to use
The start-up of the TAP CURIOUS proves to be a very simple. On the one hand, the device by means of the existing RJ45 connectors between the two to be analyzed nodes in the network. On the other hand, tap on the GBit interface to a PC or laptop. The reading and analyzing the abgegriffenen packet data is via the freely available software Wireshark. The supplied wireshark plugin provides a smooth connection between the device and software. In addition to the recording of faulty message frames in the network in which the TAP usually is switched between two devices (see application example A), the TAP also use specifically to analyze data streams of a device on the network can (see example of use. B). Stands the TAP CURIOUS both the frames directly before and directly after being analyzed. This makes it po
