EtherScope Network Assistant provides critical performance metrics about your wired and wireless LANs. The instruments autotest feature quickly verifies performance at the physical layer, discovers networks and devices, and identifies configuration and performance problems. For in-depth analysis, the instrument also includes a group of diagnostic tools to enable you to locate devices on your network and verify inter-connectivity.
The instruments user interface, which is presented on a color, touch-sensitive screen, is straightforward and intuitive. Simply by tapping a screen button, a navigation icon, or other on-screen element, you can drill down and obtain more detailed information or perform a specific operation.
Supports monitoring and testing of 10/100/1000 IEEE 802.3 (10BaseT, 100BaseTX, and 1000BaseT) networks through an RJ-45 interface, and the optional SFP fiber interface that supports 1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX, and 1000BaseZX fiber. Discovers devices, networks, and VLANs, enabling you to view individual configurations, obtain health and status information, and view network activity, errors, and protocols used.
Also supports monitoring and testing of 802.11 a/b/g devices connected to a wireless LAN. Automatically scans all channels to gather and report statistics on the health and status of the network. Discovers access points (APs) and client devices, identifies top talkers, locates rogue devices and flags security problems. Enables you to perform site surveys so that you can make sure that all areas of your network have adequate signal coverage and can also perform security login verification.
Fiber option enables the SFP fiber interface. Supports 1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX, or 1000BaseZX fiber.
