Broadband Access Networks

Broadband access networks are evolving from a simple high-speed Internet connectivity mechanism to those that deliver simultaneous voice, video and data (triple-play) services. A new generation of devices are required to power the networks that deliver these services. The devices must now have the ability to manage an increasing number of different protocols, and manage and enforce differentiated traffic types with new levels of scalability.

 

 

The Agilent N2X Access test solution accelerates the development and deployment of next-generation broadband access networks by providing the industry’s most scalable real-world test environment to validate the ultimate service limits of these new aggregation devices such as Broadband Remote Access Servers (B-RAS), IP DSLAMs and edge routers.

The N2X Access solution set offers unmatched realistic testing of access services:

  • Characterize the scalability and performance of edge aggregation devices with scalable PPPoX/L2TP protocol emulation

  • Verify service reliability using Agilent N2X's unique realtime per-stream measurements to simultaneously validate QoS attributes and SLAs required to deliver emerging ‘triple-play’ services

  • The flexible PDU Builder, multi-protocol emulation environment and interactive user interface makes N2X the most realistic solution capable of simulating an environment that accurately reflects the volatility of live networks

  • The most accurate and realistic test solution for characterising IPTV Channel Zapping performance of B-RAS's and IP-DSLAMs providing unique insight into end user Quality of Experience.

  • Industry only complete EPON test solution that combines end-to-end traffic across a gigabit Ethernet PON with unique “on-PON” measurements, monitoring both the data and control traffic directly on the gigabit EPON.
