| JDSU Adds 10GigE Module to ONT-506/512 Tester JDSU has announced a new 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) module for its ONT-506 and ONT-512 product lines designed to help labs and manufacturers verify GigE network element reliability, interoperability and quality of service (QoS). The ONT-506/512 10 GigE module is part of JDSU's Metro Ethernet test portfolio, which includes the most comprehensive range of Ethernet instruments, systems and software required by manufacturers, labs and operators to successfully develop and deliver next-generation broadband services. With the addition of the 10 GigE module, the ONT-506/512 supports the test needs of manufacturers and labs worldwide by offering Ethernet modules for complete testing across all major interfaces in the 10 Gigabit-per-second range (including 10 GigE LAN, 10G SONET/SDH, 10.7G OTN and 10G Ethernet-over- SONET/SDH, or EoS). Later this year, JDSU will offer a software upgrade for the 10 GigE module that provides 10 GigE WAN test features. Technical features of the new ONT-506/512 10 GigE module include LAN testing at 850, 1310 and 1550nm, Layer 1 and 2 support; traffic generation, filtering and analysis; and advanced automation features (SCPI, C-library). The ONT platform is a multi-functional, multi-port and multi-user solution for fast and flexible testing of optical network environments. The ONT is designed to address the optical and digital testing needs in R&D, SVT and troubleshooting. JDSU offers a choice of ONT platforms covering rack- mountable and portable mainframes, and a range of plug-in instrument modules for SONET/SDH, DSn/PDH, new SONET/SDH, OTN, EoS, Ethernet and DWDM, controlled via an intuitive user interface. Designed to keep pace with the high-speed evolution of today's communications technology, the ONT is the essential test tool for manufacturers, early technology installers, operator's verification lab and tier-3 support of optical networks. EoS and 40/43G test functionality are the newest additions to the ONT testers and include high-accuracy Jitter test capabilities. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
