Anritsu MP1570A

SDH/PDH Analyzer

The MP1570A is a versatile analyser that can be used in the R&D, manufacturing, installation, maintenance and inspection of SONET, SDH, PDH, and ATM chipsets, systems and networks. Its plug-in or modular card architecture allows you with flexible configuration options for various applications. Concatenated payloads can be generated to simulate live traffic from OC-3c/STM-1c to OC-192c/STM-64c. The MP1570A offers more streamlined options and features enabling to reach its full performance potential and maximises its testing capability.

Besides all standard testing features that are found in all test solutions, the MP1570A also offers a host of new advanced features --- CID pattern, No frame pattern, Mixed payload as well as different types of powerful through-mode function which makes it a powerful tool for R&D and manufacturing.

New options such as: "Packet over SONET/SDH" (POS) and "IP over ATM" (IPOA) are now available in the MP1570A making it more powerful than before. When equipped with POS option, real time counting of PPP (point to point protocol) packets in SONET or SDH frames can be performed. IP packet data editing, programming, PPP packet to packet interval setting, and transmission of PPP packets with FCS (frame check sequence) error --- all are possible with the POS option. And with the IPOA option, much faster analysis can be performed as ATM/AAL5 errors and alarms can now be measured in real time.

The MP1570A's functional design minimises setup time and reduces costs by eliminating the need for multiple test instruments. The analyser has built in printer and 3.5 inch floppy disk drive as standard. Smaller in size, portable and yet supporting all rates from 1.5 Mbps to 10 Gbps in a single mainframe, gives you more flexibility to test any rate without going through the troubles of changing any of the plug-ins. With the capability of supporting all three mappings - SONET, SDH and Japanese (384k), the MP1570A can be used anywhere in the world which makes it a very cost-effective and a perfect analyser to use globally.
