Trigger
• 2 independent multilevel trigger sequencers per module with multiway
branching
• Dual channel triggering, trigger on sequence of events in with specified
directions (Tx and Rx)
• 8 states per trigger sequencer
Resources
2 counter/timers (for trigger on time-outs) per sequencer
Pattern Matchers
8 128-byte pattern matchers (primitives or frames) with associated
local counters
Global Timers
Two 48-bit (7-day) global timers with associated reset
Counters
Two 24-bit global counters that count up/down and have an associated
reset
Flexible Visualization
• Easy Flow – GUI feature to highlight protocol interactions in the trace
• Context Sensitive Display – displays only relevant fields to maximize
trace understanding
Combinations
‘AND’ or ‘OR’ conditions between pattern matchers
Cross Triggering (internal)
Cross-module arm in/out for inclusion in sequencer events coming from
another analyzer
Cross Triggering (external)
1 external trigger in/out per chassis
Filters
Hardware filter conditions can be defined individually for each sequence
level
Error Detection
Disparity, code violation, CRC error, undersize frames, oversized frames,
loss of sync
Frame Truncation
Beginning at the SOF, specified number of FC words are captured to
memory – effectively deepening the trace
Resolution
8.3 ns TimeStamp resolution
Time Correlation
• All analyzers in the same session share the same clock to allow for
time-correlated measurements
• Time correlation on up to 128 modules (256 analyzers)
Search
High-speed hardware assisted search
Trigger In/Out
1 external trigger in/out per chassis
Technical Specifications for the SAN Director Tester Application
Number of Ports

Measurements ( 173x in SAN Tester Mode)
24 real-time measurements including throughput, latency, dropped
frames, disparity errors, CRC errors, BB credit, failover recovery time
Result Types
• Cumulative: measurements are reported from the start of the
measurement interval
• Instantaneous: measurements are reported from the most recently
completed sampling interval
Measurement Clock Resolution
10 ns resolution; ±0.5 ppm/year clock drift; 3 ppm maximum difference
between cards
Measurement Interval
Range: 1 second to 7 days
Display Sampling Interval
Range: 1 second to 1 hour
Test Card Synchronization
All measurements are synchronized across all test cards within the 1733L

Ordering Information
The Agilent 173x Series Fibre Channel Test Solution consists of a system
controller and multiple chassis hosting 173x Series test cards. The
system controller provides a graphical interface to drive the SAN Tester,
Protocol Analyzer or SAN Director Tester software applications and the
test cards being used. This flexible test system will be able to incorporate
new Agilent 173x test cards in the future, thereby protesting your
investment.
System Controller
Several system controllers are available, depending on performance
requirements. The controller provides an easy-to-use Windows
®
environment for running the test system software.

Chassis
The compact, 4-slot, 2U-high chassis houses up to 4 Fibre Channel test
cards. An ultra-compact 2-slot chassis houses up to 2 Fibre Channel test
cards. You can easily daisy-chain multiple chassis to support hundreds of
test ports in a single test system. You can move hot-swappable test cards
between chassis without affecting other test sessions.
