Advanced Serial Protocol Analyzer
Most data networks are complicated, not just the hardware and network issues, but also the high-level protocols that devices use to communicate; and to make things even more complicated, many manufacturers have incorporated proprietary protocols for their devices. Integrating different devices and protocols within a data network is always the most challenging task for system integrators, firmware / software developers, and site engineers. From the simplest loopback test to complicated checksum calculation and sophisticated firmware and GUI software development, the 232Analyzer is designed to tackle all these challenges.

1000BASE SFP Transceivers
CommFront offers a range of high-quality, high-performance SFP transceivers ranging from MM 850nm / 0.3 miles (550m) to SM 1550nm / 100 miles (160km). SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) is a compact, hot-pluggable network interface module used for data communication and tele-communication applications. SFP equips with one or two fiber optic connectors (e.g. LC connectors) for connecting a fiber optic cable or sometimes an RJ45 connector for connecting a copper cable. Because of its compact size and flexibility, many Ethernet Switches come with SFP ports so individual ports can be equipped with any suitable type of transceiver as required.
