TSH have just announced a new protocol analyser which solves a number of
problems related to the analysis of high-speed data lines.  The software runs
on a 33MHz 80386 portable PC and drives a 256-colour super-VGA 9" CRT.
External VGA and EGA monitors with resolutions up to 1024x768 can also be
driven, however.

The analyser itself operates at speeds from 110 b/s to 4.5 Mb/s and interprets
HDLC, X.25, SNA and DPNSS among other protocols.  A sophisticated windowing
system allows the user to monitor real-time traffic whilst simultaneously
browsing through buffer data.  The interfaces available include RS-232, X.21,
V.35, V.36, G.703 co-ax at 2 Mbit/sec (the analyser monitors unframed at this
speed), and a G.704 timeslot extractor.
