802.15.4 / ZigBee Transceiver
Protocol analysis of a personal
area network (PAN) isn't always easy when your workstation or laptop
is tethered to a USB dongle. A desktop might not be close enough to
the optimum dongle location, even with a maximum length (5m or 16.4')
USB cable extension. Worse, it may not be possible to place a single
dongle within reception range of every node in a large PAN. And if you
need to analyze a distant customer's PAN, it's a trip out of the
office.
Replacing the dongle's USB interface with an Ethernet interface
solves all these problems. One or more Q51 transceivers can be placed
to cover an entire PAN, however large, and connected over a local area
network or the internet to a desktop anywhere in the world.
Received packets from each Q51 are time-stamped and forwarded to an
industry-standard protocol analyzer allowing analysis of your
entire network, not just a part of it. Get the full picture with dissection of 802.15.4, ZigBee
2004, and ZigBee 2006 layers as well as many public
profiles. Got your own private profiles? No problem - you can modify
our open source dissection code and watch your products work.
Q51 installation is quick and easy with Gecko, our network
discovery tool. You can then manage your remote Q51s using either its
web or telnet servers. Protocol display and analysis is performed on
Wireshark, an industry-standard Windows or Linux application.
