Overview
The ARGUS26 is the premium tester for PRI, BRI, and POTS accesses as
well as for permanent circuits.
The hand held unit is compact and easy to use with intuitive menus,
cursor keys and soft keys.
On a PRI or BRI circuit, it supports TE/NT simulation & monitoring
and can save the data in its 16 MB of internal memory and decode it.
Just plug in the Argus 26 to automatically detect the ISDN line configuration
and protocol including point to point / point to multipoint, ISDN services
available and any active call diversion
Additionally, this tester offers an E1 bit error rate test (MegaBERT).
Test reports can be easily generated using the WINplus software included.
Bit Error Rate tests may be run during a call with adjustable good /
bad threshold and injection of errors if required. All results are displayed
on the back lit LCD in clear text.
The Argus 26 has optional U-interface and X.21 access.
