Telecom Lead America: Spirent Communications has launched
Spirent TestCenter C100.
Spirent TestCenter C100 is a test appliance platform that
enables carriers, enterprises and equipment manufacturers to validate that
their terabit, application-aware networks deliver the required performance,
availability and security at scale.
The Spirent C100 offers test coverage on a single test
platform, including testing of app-aware carrier Ethernet devices,
next-generation firewalls, mobile and Wi-Fi networks, and video and content
delivery networks (CDN) with deep packet inspection (DPI) and app-aware policy
controls.
The Spirent C100 platform raises the bar for testing with
double the performance compared with previous generations of test solutions.
This results in savings to end-users, enabling testing at next-generation
performance levels without needing to double the amount of equipment used.
When testing application security, Spirent C100 is
capable of generating more than 80Gbps of real application traffic and 90
million simultaneous TCP connections. For mobility testing, Spirent C100
emulates millions of subscribers with realistic busy-hour call/data models
combining application traffic and complex 2G/3G/LTE and Wi-Fi mobility
scenarios.
For security application performance, the solution
realistically emulates thousands of vulnerabilities and attacks, as well as
thousands of IPsec tunnels and multi-10Gbps of encrypted traffic, to accurately
determine the impact of smartphone applications on the network and whether the
threat exposes secure business services.
Our customers are under intense pressure to deliver a
new generation of secure, application-aware mobile and cloud networks. Spirent
C100 advances Spirent TestCenter’s performance architecture and is built from
the ground up to ensure that test engineers have testing resources that are
ready to validate the performance and scale of modern networks,” said Patrick
Johnson, senior director of product marketing at Spirent.
