Finisar's protocol test solutions accelerate product development so designers can bring network equipment to market faster, reduce development costs, improve product quality and reliability, and ensure interoperability and compliance. Users gain unmatched visibility into network interactions for streamlined identification and resolution of even the most difficult network performance impairment and reliability issues. With advanced features such as intelligent triggering, hardware-based capture, and Expert analysis, they are the ideal tools for designing both today's and tomorrow's high-speed communications applications.

Multi-protocol environments increase network complexity, making it more difficult for developers to identify and troubleshoot problems, and the Xgig and Bus Doctor platforms are the most trusted multi-protocol analysis tools for network development and monitoring. The Bus Doctor supports 13 different serial and parallel bus protocols used in electronics and computing applications. For network and storage applications, the Xgig chassis hosts up to four blades coupled with a comprehensive suite of analysis software. It is the only protocol analyzer supporting multiple protocols in a multi-functionality environment at multiple data rates simultaneously, all within the same chassis, providing users with the utmost in scalability and flexibility.
Advanced multifunctional capabilities available on Xgig platform – depending upon the protocol – include:
- Analyzer
- Protocol Generation
- Traffic Load Testing
- Error Injection/Jamming
- Bit Error Rate Testing (BERT)
Finisar's proven analyzers carry engineers through initial product development, debugging, compliance verification, manufacturing regression testing, in-field troubleshooting, and even into the network to help administrators gain greater visibility into the data centers to maximize network performance and reliability.
Finisar is the unchallenged leader for network test and analysis equipment, facilitating early product development by being the first to introduce the tools developers need:
