Gigabit and ten gigabit network emulators/delay generators are used to test networks, network equipment and applications in a lab environment. Our ten-gigabit Network Emulators can delay signals by up to 1600 milliseconds, and inject errors at rates ranging from 10-2 to 10-15. Network Emulators enable real world error testing with advanced error injection features such as programmable burst length, multiple error types and stochastic error modeling. Customers are using our Network Emulators to validate voice and video applications, simulate satellite networks, emulate service level agreements, and conduct disaster recovery planning. http://protocoltools.com/10gigabit_network_delay_generator

The VirtuaLUN Fibre Channel Target Emulation System provides a virtual, configurable environment for testing Fibre Channel infrastructure devices at a fraction of the cost of deploying physical disk arrays. A 4-Gbps VirtuaLUN will be available later in 2005. A 2-Gbps version is available today. With the VirtualLUN Fibre Channel HBA infrastructure engineers, as well as SAN software developers can test and demonstrate performance in a seemingly infinite number of real-world environments, without deploying costly disk arrays. http://www.protocoltools.com/virtuallun

Our new SAS/SATA protocol analyzer features new "Expert" software that allows users to quickly troubleshoot and resolve SAS protocol implementation problems. We also have new SAS Verification Suite (SVT) software that provides validation tests that cover the PHY, link, transport and application levels of the SAS protocol. http://www.protocoltools.com/sata_sas

Xgig is a scalable, portable, protocol analyzer platform for 1,2,4 and 10Gb Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet (iSCSI and FCIP) SANs. Xgig is a combined software and hardware package that streamlines the resolution of events that cause performance problems. Xgig enables users to design, implement, test and evaluate SANs and their components by automatically analyzing captured traces for errant behaviors and providing extensive performance analysis capabilities. Along with its key analysis capabilities for Enterprise SANs, Xgig is also a key product in interoperability and compliance testing, and is used by Fibre Channel OEMs and Vendors to make sure that their SAN equipment adheres to Fibre Channel industry standards. http://www.protocoltools.com/xgig

The Extreme SCSI Development System is a comprehensive Fibre Channel and SCSI Test and Development package. Containing five components, this package allows for complete peripheral evaluation capabilities, unsurpassed statistical gathering, performance benchmarking, and manufacturing test. Coupled with our unique Failure Analysis package and Test Script Generator for manufacturing, it's easy to see why this great value is the most popular of our SCSI software packages. http://www.protocoltools.com/extreme

The new PCI Express analyzer has advanced features, including more memory channels and cross-sequence triggering. It is designed specifically for high-speed, multi-lane, multiple protocol serial buses such as PCI Express. The scalable PCI Express analyzer is a system that delivers the test capabilities required by today's PCI Express vendors and provides test solutions that meet today’s performance demands. http://www.protocoltools.com/pci-express
