Our Products
The Capture Module MultiGigabit is a high-performance data logging solution built for today’s complex in-vehicle Ethernet networks. It enables seamless data capture, analysis, and diagnostics across a range of Ethernet speeds — without impacting live communication.
Capture Module MultiGigabit
Early Access Product1
The Capture Module (CM) MultiGigabit from Technica Engineering is an active tap device designed to capture 2.5/5/10GBASE-T1 traffic of up to 1 point-to-point 2.5/5/10GBASE-T1 connection (2 ports in total). The received data is captured and HW timestamped without causing interference on the in-vehicle-network (IVN) and sent out to the data sink (e.g. data logger or PC).
Standardized logging protocol
The Capture Module encapsulates logged frames into an ethernet frame adding valuable information such as the HW timestamp, Interface ID, Counter and more in a standardized logging protocol header.
Scalable setups
Several Capture Modules can be combined and used together in the same measurement network. The built-in time synchronization feature allows to synchronize the whole measurement network with the same time base. This makes the Capture Modules very scalable and allows to add other IVN technologies to the measurement setup.
Optimized logging
The Capture Module is equipped with an internal buffer to store the first frames (sent from the ECUs), even if the data sink is not yet ready. As soon as the data sink is up and ready to receive data, all the stored data will be sent out. With the packetization and output traffic shaping feature the Capture Module can adjust the size of the logging frames and have the possibility to maintain a consistent data flow (to the logger or the test PC). This way it actively prevents forwarding of bursts. The combination of these features ensures that no frames are lost.
Configuration
The CM offers a flexible and user-friendly configuration through its built-in web server. The device webpage can be easily accessed via a standard web browser. In addition, the possibility to import/export a configuration makes it even more convenient.
1Early Access Product
An Early Access Product (EAP) is a nearly finished product available to selected users before its official release. The product may remain in this status, because it includes a pre-market component (PHY/Switches) that is not fully certified, which restricts the entire product from achieving CE certification or equivalent regulatory approval. This means, EAP is still a prototype, but in a very advanced state. Small adaptations are still possible, but no critical changes are expected and general development is closed. The software includes almost all planned features. Documentation as e.g. User Manual is available and completed.
Capture Modules are designed to be used in different environments such as in the car, on a development desk or in testbenches. In order to cover these areas as best as possible, the devices allow continuous operation and a wide temperature range.
