Tele-Path Instruments, a division of Acterna has launched the TPI 750 ATM analyzer, which focuses on physical layer testing for asynchronous transfer mode network buildout and troubleshooting applications that field technicians typically perform.
The TPI 750 is the latest addition to a ATM testing product line that already has solutions aimed at the interswitch backbone environment (T-Berd 310), local area networks (Fireberd 500) and data center, production test, and research and development operations (Fireberd 6000).
The TPI 750's standard features include quality-of-service measurements, selectable header data, auto detection and user-selectable cell stream parameters.
