The Teledyne LeCroy 2014-15001-000 Frontline 802.11 a/b/g/n Protocol Analyzer is a passive capture and analysis instrument for IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. It decodes Wi-Fi traffic across 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz bands, supporting 802.11 a/b/g/n standards with 3×3 MIMO capability. The analyzer captures packets into a 250 GB built-in buffer, provides accurate timestamping, and decrypts WEP and AES-CCM (WPA2 PSK) traffic. Network engineers and developers use this tool for protocol troubleshooting, performance analysis, and security assessment in lab environments.
