Multilayer network test and measurement platform

2 November 2005 Test & Measurement

NetTest's CMA 5000 is a test and measurement solution for installing, commissioning and documenting fibre-optic networks. Utilising a common platform, the CMA 5000 provides complete testing for multiple network layers, all at the touch of a single button. As a high performance, scalable solution, the CMA 5000 aids in accelerating the deployment of new services and optimising network performance, while reducing the cost of measurement.

It has the ability to span the Physical, Data Link, Network and Transport layers with test and measurement applications ranging from DWDM, SONET/SDH, Gigabit Ethernet, OTDR and Dispersion. With its PC-based, open architecture design and common computer interface, the CMA 5000 is able to remain up-to-date with the latest applications necessary to install and maintain current and evolving telecommunication networks.

The CMA 5000 allows the user to quickly and easily characterise critical network parameters and diagnose network impairments. Network performance and reliability can quickly be documented it offers all of the test applications required for comprehensive physical layer characterisation.
