Exfo has integrated powerful multiservice testing capabilities across its portfolio of transport and datacom modules, enabling comprehensive and simultaneous per-service measurements for more efficient QoS assessment and SLA validation.
Today’s Ethernet services – such as commercial triple-play and mobile backhaul – must comply with strict service-level agreements (SLAs), which include different levels of quality of service (QoS) for each type of service (ToS). This has fuelled the need for increased testing to ensure the condition and reliability of the services and to fully qualify all SLA parameters when installing new services.
These new test functions allow service providers to simultaneously test up to 10 different service applications with different QoS levels, based on Ethernet and IP parameters such as VLAN ID (802.1Q), VLAN priority (802.1p), VLAN stacking (802.1ad Q-in-Q), ToS and differentiated services code points. Specific service profiles including voice-over-IP, video and data can be applied for quick and easy test configurations. All critical test parameters – throughput, latency, frame loss and packet jitter (RFC 3393) – are accessible simultaneously for each stream, allowing fast and in-depth qualification of all SLA criteria.
Enhanced capabilities are offered with all Packet Blazer and Transport Blazer test modules, including the FTB-8510B, FTB-8510G, FTB-8525/8535 and FTB-8120NGE/8130NGE test modules, which are housed in the newly launched FTB-500 platform or in the FTB-200 compact platform. They are also supported by the recently released RTU-310 and RTU-310G IP services Ethernet test heads, purposely built for centralised carrier Ethernet and mobile backhaul service testing.
