Cloud-based network testing service that delivers independent certification of the quality and performance of critical network connection services.

The PDA-300 Powered Device Analyzer is a single-box comprehensive solution for testing IEEE 802.3at PoE Powered Devices (PD’s). It offers one-button, fully automated test sequences and limit processing for critical Powered Device operating parameters. With measurements performed at the Powered Device network interface, many parameters critical to IEEE 802.3at interoperation can be efficiently compared to specification requirements thus fully avoiding the need for extensive interoperability testing with IEEE 802.3at PSE’s and network connections.

The PDA-602A Powered Device Analyzer from Sifos Technologies is a single-box comprehensive solution for testing IEEE 802.3at PoE Powered Devices (PD’s). It offers one-button, fully automated test sequences and limit checking for critical Powered Device PoE characteristics. With measurements performed at the Powered Device network interface, many parameters critical to IEEE 802.3at interoperation can be accurately assessed relative to specification requirements, thus fully avoiding the need for and limitations associated with interoperability testing using IEEE 802.3at PSE’s.

The PDA-602B Powered Device Analyzer from Sifos Technologies is a single-box comprehensive solution for testing IEEE 802.3at PoE Powered Devices (PD’s). It replaces the PDA-602A which has reached its End-Of-Life (EOL).

The IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) standard requires that all “Type-2” (>13Watt) Powered Devices support the new PoE LLDP protocol. This protocol allows PSE’s and Powered Devices (PD) to communicate power requirements and power allocations with 0.1 watt granularity. It also allows for in-service adjustments to power allocations.

The PDS-1G, from East Coast Datacom, is a Portable Delay Simulator allowing users to test/stage critical network equipment by altering bandwidth, latency, packet loss, congestion and other important link impairments over 10/100/1000 Ethernet.

This group of fully automated tests can be automatically sequenced across up to 24 10/100/1000BaseT ports to produce colorful and graphical reports of interface performance.   Sequencing and reporting is accomplished with just a few mouse clicks in PVA Interactive software or with a single command in PowerShell PSA. Unlike traditional packet testing, PhyView Performance Tests clearly and independently characterize transmitter, receiver, and physical interfaceperformance in quantitative terms that predict link performance over the full range of possible applications.

Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) challenges design and test engineers to evaluate multi-channel, “intelligent” DC power sources that are activated and deactivated through signaling protocols operating over several power delivery and polarity configurations. The application and management of DC power over multiple local area network connections must be completely transparent and non-disruptive to the traditional data transmission functions of those network connections.

The Sifos Technologies PSA-3002-SA PoE Service Analyzer marries the Sifos PSA-3002 Compact PowerSyncÒ Analyzer with specialized application software to enable the most comprehensive and fully automated testing available for PoE analysis and qualification at a Powered Device service access point. The tests available go well beyond standard power-up and line voltage measurements found in low cost, hand-held analyzers to fully assess interoperability risks, safety hazards, and PoE performance limitations at the connection to any Powered Device.

The PSE Conformance Test Suite is a fully automated, highly adaptive group of tests designed to assess PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) compliance to the 802.3at specification.  Sifos provides industry leading coverage and diagnostic capabilities based upon the core resources of each PowerSync^® Analyzer test port coupled with the high level processing power of PowerShell PSA.

The Sifos Technologies PSE Multi-Port Suite takes the PowerSync Analyzer and it’s proven PSE Conformance Test Capabilities into the realm of fully automated PSE System Power Management, Capacity Analysis, and Multi-Port Timing / Interaction testing covering up to 192 total PSE ports.  This set of highly unique capabilities enable product developers and QA professionals to gain totally new insights into PoE system characteristics and behaviors. At the heart of the PSE Multi-Port Suite is the ability to rapidly define and apply a wide range of Powered Device emulation attributes to a large field of PSE ports.

The PVA-3000 PhyView Analyzer from Sifos Technologies is designed to bridge the wide coverage gap between comprehensive Ethernet twisted pair PHY compliance testing and simple packet verification testing. The PVA-3000 introduces an innovative multi-port capability dedicated to 10/100/1000BaseT physical layer characterisation under controlled impairments including line loss, ingress noise, jittered or offset timing, and even Power-over-Ethernet. The PVA-3000 tests Ethernet switches and routers, discrete LAN interfaces, link transmission components, and network service integrity at any 10/100/1000Base-T interface.
