RFAN 3.x Radio Traffic Analyzer is a software tool that allows you to evaluate radio network traffic parameters based on the processing and analysis of received radio messages from the network. Network messages are sent to the analyzer via the WACO GateWay, which is an essential link between the radio network and the software itself. The RFAN 3.x analyzer can be used with the following types of WACO gateways:

WM868-RFU (WACO USB GateWay) is used to facilitate the exchange of information between the collection, control, monitoring system or other central application and WACO radio network elements via a serial line emulated on the USB port of the computer where the application is running.

WM868-RFE (WACO Ethernet GateWay) is used to facilitate the exchange of information between the collection, control, monitoring system, traffic analyzer, or other central application and WACO radio network elements, where communication between systems is mediated by an intermediate IP network. The module receives packets from the WACO radio network, checks their correctness, packs them into an IP / UDP frame and sends them to the set IP address and port number via the Ethernet 10/100 port with which the gateway is equipped. In the opposite direction, it receives from the master system (analyzer) in the IP / UDP datagram packaged complete radio packets to be sent to the WACO radio network. These packets are unpacked and sent to the network.

WM868-RFG (WACO GSM GateWay) is used to facilitate the exchange of information between the collection, control, monitoring system, traffic analyzer, or other central application and WACO radio network elements, where communication between systems is mediated through GSM / GPRS network. Its functionality is similar to WACO Ethernet GateWay, but the gateway includes a GSM / GPRS radio modem, which allows GPRS communication over the GSM mobile network.

All communication gateways are hardware elements that are not part of the analyzer, but it is necessary to obtain them for working with the analyzer.
