Apposite Linktropy 8510 WAN Emulator

Description

Apposite Technologies makes WAN emulation easy by offering professional-quality network emulation tools at affordable prices. Apposite’s Netropy and Linktropy WAN emulation appliances simulate bandwidth, latency, loss, congestion, and other network impairments with fine-grained precision to provide accurate simulations of any type of wide-area network. Netropy and Linktropy WAN emulators are widely deployed by leading enterprises, application and equipment developers, telecoms carriers, and government and military organisations around the world. Apposite Technologies – WAN Emulation Made Easy.

Apposite’s Linktrophy WAN emulators simulate bandwidth, latency, jitter, loss, congestion, and other important link impairments in the lab under a spectrum of real-world conditions. Through an intuitive, browser-based user interface, you can install the Linktrophy WAN emulator and begin testing within minutes.

Easy to Use: Linktropy WAN emulators are a snap to install and configure. Just plug in the Ethernet cables, specify your link conditions, and begin the emulation. No software to install, no training needed. The Linktropy GUI combines the responsiveness of an application with the convenience of a standard web browser.

Bandwidths up to 1 Gbps: Emulate links of any speed from 300 bits per second up to 1 Gbps.

Delay up to 10 seconds: Emulate latency from 0.1 ms up to 10 seconds in each direction in a constant, normal, or uniform distribution.

Error Emulation: Specify loss as a packet loss rate, bit error rate, or both.

Congestion: Determine the effects of congestion on bandwidth and jitter-sensitive applications by utilising Linktropy’s background traffic emulation.

Multiple Links: Emulate multiple links with the 8510 model. Four separate pairs of Ethernet interfaces make simulation of multiple links as easy as a single link.

Bridging/Routing: Install the Linktropy WAN emulator as either a bridge or router for easy integration with any test network.

Copper or Fiber Interfaces: Available with either copper or SFP ports for easy integration into any network.

Flexible Capacity: Pay only for the bandwidth that you need to emulate now, and upgrade later if you ever need to emulate higher speed links.

Capture and Replay Live Network Conditions: Capture live network conditions with the Linktropy Recorder and replay them through the Linktropy WAN emulator to reproduce the varying characteristics of the
actual network in a repeatable test environment.

Advanced Emulation Parameters: Verify that applications properly handle anomalous packet reordering and duplication conditions without inducing stability or performance problems.

Traffic Monitor: See a visual display of the current traffic, including throughput graphs and link statistics. Download up to 24 hours of statistics for analysis.

Automated Testing: Take advantage of the Linktropy Scheduler or the command line interface to automate a series of tests.

Unsurpassed Precision: Test with confidence — Linktropy WAN emulators offer unsurpassed precision to ensure accurate and reproducible results.

Everything You Need: Everything you need is included in the compact, rack-mountable Linktropy WAN emulator. No additional hardware, software, or training required.
