SierraNet M1288

The SierraNet M1288 analyzer is Teledyne LeCroy’s QSFP-DD 10/25/40/50/100/200/400/800G-L1/ 800* Gigabit Ethernet (*requires 2 SierraNet M1288 units) and Gen7 Fibre Channel Analyzer platform (via the SFP112 connections). It has:

  • two (2) Digitally Retimed QSFP-DD ports (P1, P2),

  • two (2) Analysis-only ports (P3, P4, require the M1288 Probe, sold separately), and

  • four (4) SFP112 ports.

Up to 128 GB of capture memory allows for capturing of extensive line-speed data. The SierraNet M1288 Probe employs Teledyne LeCroy’s T.A.P.6 non-intrusive probing technology, which enables complete protocol capture, fast signal locking, and very little loss and jitter. The analyzer can be controlled either by using a one (1) Gigabit Ethernet connection to the local network, or a USB connection. The SierraNet M1288 provides the user with easy-to-understand control panel and LED indicators.

Major features of the M1288 include:

  • triggering on back-to-back events,

  • use of counters within trigger conditions, and

  • multi-state (up to 24) triggering and filtering state machines with four transitions per state.

The Net Protocol Suite software for controlling the analyzer and displaying the captured data installs on the latest Microsoft® Windows® version.
