The Frontline Edge

 Over Two Decades of Tech-Com Problem Solving

Frontline is the world's leading provider of PC-based protocol analyzers for special-purpose data communication networks. We pioneered portable and versatile trouble-shooting software solutions for serial and Ethernet network topologies and communication protocols. Based on this firmly established expertise, beginning in 2000 we expanded into the wireless developer industry by building powerful test tools for Bluetooth and ZigBee technologies. As a result of collaborative work with the Bluetooth SIG and major developers, our wireless products pushed gross annual sales for 2004 to over twice the previous year. Today sales of all analyzers continue to rise and our developer products represent 60% of annual sales. Frontline is firmly established as the industry leader in Bluetooth technology protocol analysis.

Designed by Engineers for Engineers
Our growing family of Frontline Test System (FTS) general-purpose and industry-specific protocol analyzers is based upon a common protocol-decoding engine. FTS products provide a common user interface, offer protocol decoding at the bit level, and enable the rapid development of custom decodes for proprietary protocols and extensions to existing protocol decoders. FTS products enable shorter and less costly development intervals for communication network equipment and applications, faster and more efficient network installations, and improved mean-time-to-repair following equipment and network outages.

Trusted Worldwide in the Field and in the Lab: 40,000 Units Strong
FTS products are trusted worldwide by field service personnel, system installers and maintainers, network operators, and application developers. Whether your application is a factory- or field-based industrial control network, or lab-based high-tech equipment development, Frontline’s protocol analyzer tools will help you isolate, identify, and fix com problems with precision and accuracy. For industrial networks this means reduced down time and increased production. For developers it means shorter debug, test, and verify cycles allowing products to get to market-FAST!
