10 Gigabit Ethernet Test Module EtherSAM: The New Standard in Ethernet Testing ITU-T Y.1564 is the new standard for turning up and troubleshooting Carrier Ethernet services. This methodology is completely adapted to today's Ethernet services especially mobile backhaul and commercial services. Up to now, RFC 2544 has been the most widely used methodology. However, it was designed for network device testing in the lab, not for services testing in the field. ITU-T Y.1564 is the first testing standard developed for the field. It has a number of advantages over the RFC 2544 including validation of...

IQS-8510G Packet Blazer 10 Gigabit Ethernet Test Module Efficient Testing Leads to Reliable Performance TCP Throughput Internet protocol (IP) deals with the delivery of packets, while transmission control protocol (TCP) provides the integrity and assurance that the data packets transmitted by one host are reliably received at the destination. Applications such as hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), e-mail or file transfer protocol (FTP) depend on TCP as their delivery assurance mechanism within networks. Customers deploying such applications expect not only physical- and link-level SLAs, but...

10 Gigabit Ethernet Test Module Flexible End-to-End Testing With the IQS-8510G Packet Blazer, the user can perform end-to-end testing through control of the remote unit via the LAN connection under test. This unique approach gives service providers access to test results for each direction of test, which is essential to fully qualify Ethernet services. It is also possible to perform end-to-end testing by using the Smart Loopback mode where the remote unit will return traffic to the local unit by swapping packet overhead up to layer 4 of the OSI stack. End-to-end testing options. Ethernet Advanced...
