The Prodigy 100Base-T1 Automotive Ethernet Protocol Analyzer (PGY-100BASE-T1-PA) captures and decodes in-vehicle Ethernet traffic from Layer 2 to Layer 7. It taps the two-wire, full-duplex 100BASE-T1 bus passively at the physical layer, so it adds no latency and does not disturb the network, and it streams captures continuously to the host for long test runs. Multi-level triggers on any layer, SOME/IP decode, TC10 sleep and wake-up decode and simultaneous MDIO monitoring make it a fit for ADAS and connected-vehicle ECUs. Pertech is the authorized Prodigy distributor.
100BASE-T1 analyzer highlights
- Passive, non-intrusive tap of the 100BASE-T1 bus with no added latency
- Four 100BASE-T1 ports, upgradable with two more, plus an MDIO/MDC port and two CAN ports
- Protocol decode from Layer 2 to Layer 7, including IPv4, IPv6, ARP, TCP, UDP, ICMP and SOME/IP
- Triggers on fields at every layer, from Ethernet type and MAC address to SOME/IP service and message IDs, with if-then-else multi-level logic
- Decodes TC10 sleep and wake-up events of master and slave
- Monitors 100BASE-T1 and MDIO/MDC activity at the same time; upgradable to CAN protocol analysis
- Live decode while the test runs, per-layer analytics and FCS error reporting
- Boolean search and filter, CSV and TXT export, field-upgradable software and firmware
Where the 100BASE-T1 analyzer earns its keep
- Validating ECUs for ADAS and connected-vehicle functions on 100BASE-T1
- Debugging SOME/IP services and message flows between ECUs
- Checking TC10 sleep and wake-up behavior of automotive Ethernet PHYs
- Correlating PHY management traffic on MDIO with the data on the link

Frequently asked questions
Does the analyzer affect the 100BASE-T1 network?
No. It taps the bus passively at the physical layer, so it adds no latency and captures the protocol data as it is on the link.
Which protocol layers does it decode?
Layer 2 to Layer 7: Ethernet, IPv4, IPv6, ARP, TCP, UDP, ICMP and SOME/IP, with triggers on fields at each of these layers.
Can it decode TC10 sleep and wake-up?
Yes. It decodes TC10 sleep and wake-up events of both the master and the slave PHY.
Can it monitor MDIO and CAN as well?
It monitors MDIO/MDC alongside the 100BASE-T1 traffic, and it has two CAN ports that can be upgraded to CAN protocol analysis.
