The modular LeCroy SAS products allow users to expand and upgrade systems as their
needs change. Adding new modules, or adding new BusEngines to existing modules,
can economically expand the system capabilities while maintaining a common software
interface through the integrated SASSuite Application Software.

General Description
The LeCroy SAS analyzer systems are intended to operate while inserted in the data path
between SAS or SATA initiators and targets, non-intrusively passing all data traffic while
capturing and recording the traffic of interest to the user.
The analyzer, in turn, connects to a PC over a high-speed USB cable. The PC functions
as the host controller for the analyzer. SASSuite software on the PC controls and
configures the products and retrieves and displays recorded data.
The SASSuite trace viewing software runs on any personal computer using the Windows
98SE, Window 2000, Windows ME, or Windows XP operating systems and equipped
with a functional USB interface.
The CATC 10K chassis supports up to two plug-in modules that can support tracing,
traffic generation and/or command analysis. The common hardware design allows users
to obtain muliple functions at economical prices, and to upgrade existing systems to new
functions by adding the appropriate modules, BusEngines or software licenses.
