Agilent Technologies Redefines Monitoring and Troubleshooting of 3G Networks with Industry's First Multi-User Test Solution.PALO ALTO Palo Alto, city, California Palo Alto (păl`ō ăl`tō), city (1990 pop. 55,900), Santa Clara co., W Calif.; inc. 1894. Although primarily residential, Palo Alto has aerospace, electronics, and advanced research industries. , Calif. -- Single System Delivers Critical Data and Expert Analysis for Faster Network Deployment, Lower Cost of Troubleshooting Troubleshooting is a form of problem solving. It is the systematic search for the source of a problem so that it can be solved. Troubleshooting is often a process of elimination - eliminating potential causes of a problem.

Alone, primary sources and sources affiliated with the subject of this article are not sufficient for an accurate encyclopedia article. Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :A) today announced the communications industry's first multi-user test and troubleshooting solution for complex mobile networks. Agilent's new Multi-User and Call Manager applications for its Signaling Analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer) 1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer. 2. test solution enable leading mobile network manufacturers and tier-one 3G network operators worldwide to deploy complex 3G networks faster and drive down the cost of troubleshooting. The Multi-User application's innovative approach to wireless network analysis enables multiple engineers to independently and simultaneously access the same hardware probes without affecting other users or overall system performance. Data captured from multiple independent probes can be correlated in a single client view, which enables greater system scalability and time-synchronized, multi-segment, multi-interface analysis of wireless network problems. Using this distributed testing model, a greater number of engineers can more efficiently use existing hardware probes, decreasing hardware costs. Using Call Manager, service providers can diagnose and understand difficult network problems. Rapid isolation and problem analysis is possible using Signaling Analyzer's unique, industry-leading express drill-down functionality linked with Call Manager's ability to perform complex queries on massive amounts of stored measurements. With a combination of real-time and historic analysis tools, Call Manager helps engineers find problems among millions of calls in the wireless network. "Agilent's new multi-user architecture redefines the mobile network monitoring The term network monitoring describes the use of a system that constantly monitors a computer network for slow or failing systems and that notifies the network administrator in case of outages via email, pager or other alarms. and troubleshooting industry," said Steve Witt, general manager and vice president of Agilent's Network Systems Test Division. "The technology and insight enabled by Multi-User and Call Manager is changing the industry by moving away from hardware-based diagnostic tools to an integrated systems-based approach to testing in lab environments as well as operational networks. The response from customers worldwide is extremely positive." The addition of the new OC-3/STM-1 interface to Agilent's portfolio of hardware probes is a key component of Agilent's breakthrough approach to mobile network test. The combination of the highest port density OC-3/STM-1 solution (with up to 32 full duplex (Computers) arranged so that the information may be transmitted in both directions simultaneously; - of communications channels between computers; contrasted with Agilent in Communications Agilent Technologies is a leading provider of components, test, measurement, monitoring and management solutions for the communications industry communications industry, broadly defined, the business of conveying information. Although communication by means of symbols and gestures dates to the beginning of human history, the term generally refers to mass communications. . Agilent enables designers, manufacturers and service providers to accelerate the delivery of next-generation devices, networks and services. Agilent's broad set of solutions and services includes optical, wireless, Internet and broadband technologies broadband technology Telecommunications devices, lines, or technologies that allow communication over a wide band of frequencies, and especially over a range of frequencies divided into multiple independent channels for the simultaneous transmission of different signals. that span the entire communications life cycle.
