PCG-3000BF In Stock

The PCG-3000BF by Spirent is an Abacus 5000 PCG3 subsystem that is designed specifically for PCM T1/E1 circuit testing, it offers TDM call generation and switching functionality. This subsystem supports 24 or 30 channels per circuit, which can be configured as terminating or originating channels. During call switching operations, this subsystem effectively routes calls between channels on the Abacus 5000 system based on the dialed number specified by the testing system. This allows for seamless call routing and testing of the system's capabilities. The PCG-3000BF emulates telephone exchange (central office) or terminal behavior, enabling realistic simulation of call generation for both E1 and T1 interfaces, along with call switching functionality.

The PCG-3000BF finds application in a variety of scenarios, including PBXs, switches, and central office setups, where it aids in capacity determination and traffic generation. It facilitates end-to-end testing and verification of transmission quality for various equipment, such as transmission equipment, channel banks, and multiplexers. Additionally, the subsystem supports testing of Voicemail/IVR applications and switching applications, allowing for tasks like message replay, traffic generation for leaving messages, transmission and reception of account codes, and switching between PCG3 interfaces. Moreover, the PCG-3000BF proves valuable for VoIP convergence by enabling call generation from a T1 or E1 link into an IP network via a media gateway. It supports voice quality assessment, dial-up connectivity for voice traffic monitoring, and verification of media and voice gateway functionality.

The PCG-3000BF offers significant cost savings by providing users with full flexibility in convergence testing, allowing for synchronized TDM, IP, and analog measurements through a consistent interface. This subsystem simplifies testing for IP telephony and PSTN network convergence. It facilitates functionality and performance testing for various protocols, including T.30 fax, PSTN/IP, SS7, and V.90 data modem ladder diagrams. The subsystem incorporates custom protocols, a built-in protocol analyzer, call switching and generation capabilities, programmable call progress tones, flexible call sequences, and adjustable test durations. Furthermore, the PCG-3000BF supports fax measurements on up to 96 channels for T1 and 120 channels for E1 in a 4-circuit PCG3 configuration. In larger setups, such as a 14-circuit or 28-circuit PCG3, the subsystem can handle fax measurements on up to 336 channels.
