Ethernet analyser cuts testing costs

MetroScope includes a low-cost, Gigabit LinkReflector remote tester that lets carriers perform complete SLA testing with full control from one end of the link

Fluke Networks has released the MetroScope carrier Ethernet analyser. This new portable analysis and troubleshooting tool offers savings of up to 40% for service providers deploying carrier Ethernet services. MetroScope's cost savings are provided through a low-cost, Gigabit Link Reflector that allows end-to-end RFC 2544, jitter and bit-error-rate (BERT) testing without a second MetroScope at the far end of the link.
