Sifos Technologies Releases PowerSync Analyzer 2.0 for IEEE 802.3af - Power Over Ethernet Testing

Sifos Technologies releases PSA 2.0 Software for its PowerSync Analyzer family of products. PSA 2.0's new features are: Power and accuracy of the PSE Conformance Test Suite is increased and more parameters are tested; users can now test beyond just the Full 802.3af (PoE) parameter set; PSA 2.0 improves the ease of use of PowerSync Interactive (the PSAs' GUI); new commands are added to the Tcl/TK command library for use by those using PowerShell, the PSAs' Tcl scripting language.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) August 30, 2005 -- Sifos Technologies today announced the release of PowerSync Analyzer 2.0 software (PSA 2.0). This new software for testing IEEE 802.3af (Power over Ethernet -- PoE) adds many new functions and capabilities to the family of Sifos Technologies' PowerSync Analyzers (PSAs). This release includes new firmware for the PSA Controller Blade and the PSA Dual PSE Test Blade.

PSA 2.0 is a very comprehensive upgrade that is being released at the same time as Sifos' two new PSA products, the RackPack and the Compact. Customers can use PSA 2.0 with any of their PSAs without the need to change or add any hardware.

PSA 2.0 provides many new testing capabilities which have never been available before for testing PoE.

The power and accuracy of the PSE Conformance Test Suite is increased and more parameters are tested. The user can now test now beyond just the Full 802.3af (PoE) parameter set.

PSA 2.0 improves the ease of use of PowerSync Interactive, the PSAs' GUI. New commands are added to the Tcl/TK command library for use by those using PowerShell, the PSAs' Tcl scripting language.

PSA 2.0 is now more robust than ever. PSA 2.0 can now sort its way through many previously confusing PSE misbehaviors, providing new information to the user for debug and product improvement.
