Gsm protocol Analyzer

GSM Protocol Analyzer

Overview

GL’s GSM Analyzer is used to analyze GSM protocols, a switching and signaling telecommunication protocol between MSC and BSC, BSC
and BTS and so on. GSM Analyzer also supports decoding proprietary 'Mobis' Interface (Motorola equivalent of the GSM A-bis interface
- requires additional license XX151) between BSC (Base Site Controller) - BTS (Base Transceiver Station) and BSC (Base Site Controller) -
PCU (Packet Controller Unit).
GSM Analyzer also supports complete analysis, decode and monitoring of GSM-Railway (GSM-R) - an international wireless
communications standard for railway communication and applications. These probes now supports Packet Data Analyzer with recording capabilities. Packet Data Analysis (PDA) is an outstanding tool for live monitoring of signaling and traffic over TDM. Allowing users to monitor live TDM networks including capture, analysis, and reporting of every call-in detail.
GSM analyzer collects physical and line level status and performance information, voice, data, protocol, statistics, and transmit information to a central / distributed Network Management System (NMS).
GL Communications supports the following types of GSM analyzers:

• 
  Real-time GSM Analyzer (Pre-requisites: GL's field proven T1 E1 internal cards or USB T1 E1 external units, required licenses and
  

Windows® Operating System)

• 
  Offline GSM Analyzers (Pre-requisites: Hardware Dongles and Windows® Operating System) For more details, refer GSM Protocol Analysis webpage.
