Document Number IPN IPNetSim™ Handheld Handheld (1kg), Battery Operated, Dual-Port GbE tester Longest Battery Life (8h) Dimensions: 223 mm x 144 mm x 65 mm Simulate the real-time packet network dynamics Packet delay, loss, jitter, error, bandwidth limitations, congestion, and duplication.
Document Number IPN Hardware Panel RJ-45 (Port A and B): This is the first full featured 10/100/1000BASE-T port for Ethernet transmit and receive. SFP (Port A and Port B). This port is used to connect the tester to the network through an optical interface with the help of an SFP module.
Document Number IPN Hardware Power connector: AC Power Adapter Input: 100 ~ 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz RJ-45 printer or console: Console connector. USB Slave: Enables connection of a PC to the tester and access to the internal tester file system. USB Master: Used for software upgrades and connection of external storage devices. RJ-45 general purpose LAN connector: Used for remote management of the test unit.

Document Number IPN Applications Verify the tolerance and the quality of video, audio or data applications either working in development laboratories or directly connected to commercial networks Test QoS factors of Multi-play applications including critical Data Access, Video Streaming, Internet, VoIP, IMS, HDTV, and IPTV Test routers, switches, VoIP handsets, VoIP PBXs, set-top boxes, and VoD servers Evaluate the stability of switches and routers under static or dynamic traffic load conditions over minutes, hours or days. Quality of Service (QoS), Quality of Experience (QoE) testing Satellite communications Submarine links
Document Number IPN Main Features Traffic impairments can be defined over max. 16 traffic flows Independent criteria can be used over each branch Events: Packet loss, delay, error, duplication, jitter, bandwidth limitations, and congestion Events are implemented at Ethernet layer Users can place errors within IP protocols or edit the Ethernet/IP fields Impairments as per ITU-T Y.1541 standard Jumbo frames support up to 17 kBytes Traffic shaping and Traffic Policing Ability to replicate complex network dynamic by means of modifying Bandwidth and QoS parameters
Document Number IPN Main Features 16 user-defined filters to select flows based on MAC, IP, VLAN, TCP, UDP, COS, DSCP. Configurable, either deterministic or random, time delays can be inserted in every filter Capable of processing and computing statistics over fractions of the Ethernet traffic meeting specific conditions Detailed event log window with per flow viewing of the events. Remote access via VNC
Document Number IPN Operation IPNetSim™ Handheld is inserted between two Ethernet segments in pass through mode while operating in bidirectional packet transfer mode. The emulation settings can be defined independently for 16 separate flows that can be filtered by several criteria including MAC, IP, TCP/UDP or User Mask.
Document Number IPN Enabling and Disabling Filters Equipped with 15 filters plus one special filter for background traffic (BG filter) Each filter has a priority number If one frame is selected by an specific filter it will not be processed by any lower priority filters
Document Number IPN LED Panel LEDs panel offers a quick view of the current IPNetSim™ Handheld connection and operation status. They are permanent indicators.
