Protocol Analyzer & Tester for Mobile
and Next-Generation Convergent Networks
The MSA-QX adds new features and powerful new hardware elements that make it the new gold standard in portable protocol analysis. The MSA-QX is tailored for service and installation groups who support networks with wireless and/or wireline elements, and is unparalleled in its ability to isolate problems in convergent networks driven by complex signaling architectures such as VoIP and IMS. |
|
The MSA-QX is also the industry’s most powerful field-based Customer Service Assurance tool. In this capacity, the MSA allows operators to view services from a “customer-centric” view by correlating how services and network elements affect one another, whether the services are legacy or IP-based.
The Tollgrade all-in-one solution for field locations, customer sites or the lab.
Highlights
- All-in-one platform concurrently monitors both the Access network (wireless and wireline) as well as the Core network
- Powerful simulation capabilities in a convenient, cost-effective package. Used to create advanced suites for regression testing, or used to simplify acceptance testing and installation with script-based testing
- All data can be saved in playback files and recovered for off-line post analysis where reports can be compared over time
- Illustrated scenario builders, message builders and libraries make test creation effortless
- End-to-end QoS evaluation ensures voice quality is measured accurately across the entire network. Supported intrusive algorithm: PESQ (ITU P.862). Supported non-intrusive algorithms: E-Model/VQmon (ITU-T G.107), ITU P.561 and NiQA
- Reporting flexibility. Standard Reports are designed for ease-of-use for common applications, while Customized Reports make it easy to modify settings, rearrange columns, remove trace lines or add new ones
- Results exportable to several formats (HTML, TXT, XML) and into Microsoft® applications (Word, Excel, Access)
Key Features and Benefits
- Powerful architecture allows analysis and simulation of real-world environments
- Multi-test capability allows 2 simultaneous multi-interface tests with up to 4 stacks per test
- Multi-interface correlation provides comprehensive end-to-end XDRs by automatically combining both the next-generation networks and mobile signaling messages coming from the same call
- Remote or local operation, with optional remote controllability via local AD-HOC WiFi connection
- Two-user remote access reduces expenses by allowing multi-department use
- Auto monitor easily guides user through complex network settings (including UMTS Iub)
- Service quality measured using live or simulated traffic
- CDR-to-Frame function allows call signaling messages to be retrieved with detailed graphical
