TraceSpan Launches DOCSIS Xpert™ Multi-Layer Analyzer

RA'ANANA, Israel, November 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

TraceSpan™ Communications, a leader in broadband analysis and monitoring solutions, announced today the release of DOCSIS Xpert™ 5300, a unique passive multi-layer real-time analyzer for DOCSIS 3.0 equipment and networks.

DOCSIS Xpert™ is a powerful protocol analyzer which provides full visibility into the DOCSIS network and equipment, including detailed network topology and complete and accurate analysis of DOCSIS product performance, standard compliance and interoperability. It is designed for R&D, laboratory and field application engineers engaged in the development, testing, performance analysis and deployment of DOCSIS solutions. DOCSIS Xpert™ captures and analyzes the signals without using any DOCSIS chipset and has no effect on the data transfer between the CMTS and the CMs.

With its unique multi-layer probing capability, DOCSIS Xpert™ provides comprehensive DOCSIS 3.0 PHY and MAC layer analysis from multiple upstream and downstream bonded channels simultaneously. In addition, it allows full view and analysis of the upper layers, ranging from Ethernet, through network layer protocols such as IPv4 and IPv6, and up to application layer protocols such as HTTP. As a user-friendly PC-controlled software-based analyzer, DOCSIS Xpert™ presents multi-layer information in a feature-rich and intuitive GUI that includes convenient displays, graphs and tables.

"The cable industry has long been waiting for a multi-layer analysis solution for DOCSIS 3.0", said Dr. Hanan Herzberg, TraceSpan founder and CEO, "and TraceSpan has addressed this need by leveraging its rich world-recognized telecom industry experience. DOCSIS Xpert™ is already being evaluated by a number of MSOs and manufacturers and has so far received excellent feedbacks".

The DOCSIS Xpert™ analyzer supports both DOCSIS 3.0 and EuroDOCSIS 3.0 as well as the legacy DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS 2.0, 1.1 and 1.0. Its uniqueness is in the variety of information that it can present, which includes a detailed network topology graph; visibility and protocol analysis from the DOCSIS MAC layer up to the application layer; and physical layer analysis including PSD, MER power and constellation schemes. It can easily correlate information among the physical layer, MAC layer and upper layer protocols, thus allowing engineers to quickly and easily monitor and troubleshoot their DOCSIS equipment and networks. Cutting significant time from DOCSIS development, deployment, debugging, and interoperability testing, DOCSIS Xpert™ accelerates time to market and return on investment.

DOCSIS Xpert™ will be presented in the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo in the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA, USA, November 15th through 17th, 2011, booth #2567.
