Spirent TestCenter HyperMetrics Next, testing module launched

Owing to the ever increasing demand of mobile internet, mobile broadband and high end application experience, Spirent has kicked off Spirent TestCenter HyperMetrics Next in order to enable carriers and network vendors to test networks, data and applications on mobile internet. It allows test engineers to validate support for more advanced services for more subscribers, to maximize return on investment and utilization of test resources and to expand test coverage without expanding test equipment footprint.

Networks have to be prepared to handle complex, traffic from millions of mobile and fixed subscribers using a myriad of connected devices, while delivering a high quality of service (QoS) and subscriber quality of experience (QoE). Spirent HyperMetrics next, carriers can test a network's ability to deliver these services to millions of subscribers, without service disruptions or quality issues, says a press release.

Highlights of the test module, HyperMetrics next:

* Twice the application encryption performance per module to match the most demanding security testing needs

* Three times the test coverage, enabling testing of cloud data centers, any-G mobile networks and stateful applications on a single module

* Four times the port density with half the power consumption, minimizing the need for additional space and with the power to scale to 1.92 terabits in a single chassis

* Eight times the performance with line rate data, routing emulation scale and stateful application traffic on all ports
