Overview

Industry’s first solution to provide a flexible hardware platform that enables OC-768c/STM-256c wire speed packet generation and scalable protocol performance analysis capabilities.

Agilent N2X is the industry's most comprehensive test solution for testing the development and deployment of network services for converging network infrastructures. Service providers, network equipment manufacturers (NEMs), and component manufacturers can verify service attributes of entire networks end-to-end, while also isolating problems down to individual networking devices and subsystems

Agilent N2X incorporates the strength of the RouterTester 900 to deliver unparalleled test realism to verify the ultimate performance, scalability and resilience of carrier grade services and infrastructure..

The Agilent N2X OC-768c POS XS Test Card, working in conjunction with the 'IP Performance' application, the data forwarding performance of a router can be measured at full line rate while simultaneously advertising and withdrawing routes. The time taken for a router to converge on new routes can be
precisely measured, along with the amount of data lost during this 'route flap' process.

Comprehensive transmit and receive statistics at the IP layer, Link layer and Physical layer are available in real-time, tabular and graphical formats. The powerful 'IP Analysis' application enables off-line data-capture, analysis, graphing and decodes, such that erratic or transient behavior can be diagnosed.
The E7320B N2X OC-768c XS test card has one full-duplex optical port which can generate suitably encapsulated IP packets.

The E7320B comes with a comprehensive Layer-2 analysis application ‘POS Analysis’ which allows rigorous testing down to the bit level for HDLC framed packets, ideal for framer and basic IP functionality testing as well as manufacturing test.
