The Spirent PCG-3004F is a Abacus 5000 PCG3 subsystem that serves as a comprehensive solution for TDM call generation and switching, specifically designed to test PCM T1/E1 circuits that accommodate either 24 or 30 channels per circuit. In call generation mode, the PCG-3004F executes the setup and teardown of calls for each channel, while simultaneously following a media script that includes the transmission and reception of audio signals and files. Moreover, when utilized for switching purposes, it effectively routes calls from one channel to another within the Abacus 5000 system based on the dialed number provided by the system under evaluation.
The PCG-3004F is capable of supporting various configurations, such as 4, 14, or 28 full-duplex T1 circuits or 4, 14, or 21 full-duplex E1 circuits. This subsystem can be employed for a wide range of applications, including VoIP convergence testing for voice calls generated from T1 or E1 links, voice quality assessment, connectivity verification for dial-up services, verification of media and voice gateways functionality, one-way delay measurement, and convergence testing in conjunction with the ICG3 subsystem. The PCG-3004F is particularly useful for PBXs, switches, and central office applications as it enables users to determine capacity and generate traffic.
Another application compatible with the PCG-3004F involves channel banks, transmission equipment, and multiplexers. It supports account code receiving, end-to-end testing, message replay capabilities, traffic generation for leaving messages, and verification of voicemail transmission quality. Utilizing the PCG-3004F not only offers extensive cost savings but also provides users with the flexibility required for convergence testing involving analog, TDM, and synchronized IP measurements. The system maintains a consistent user interface throughout, enhancing ease of use. Additionally, this subsystem simplifies testing procedures for IP telephony and PSTN networks and services, offering performance and functional testing for SS7, T.30 fax, V.90 data modem, clear channel, SCCP/TCAP/IN, and PSTN/IP ladder diagrams.
The PCG-3004F boasts numerous beneficial features, including support for 16 groups of SS7, PRI, GR-303, or V5 trunks per subsystem, 2048 logical channels with GR-303 concentration, and pulse dialing on V5.1 exchange. Moreover, it provides up to V.90 data modem functionality, accommodating a maximum of 48 channels for 4-circuit configurations and 112 channels for 14-circuit and 28/21-circuit setups. Additionally, the subsystem excels in detecting and forwarding DTMF, MF R1/R1.5/R2 pulse dialing, while also conducting fax measurements on multiple channels. Other notable capabilities of the PCG-3004F include sending and receiving tones, PRBS, and speech, verifying the establishment and continuity of speech paths throughout the call duration, and supporting QSIG basic calls on ISDN PRI.
