Cellular/Mobile Backhaul Testing

As the network backhaul infrastructure evolves to support new technologies that require more and more bandwidth, service providers need to gain real-time, end-to-end insight into network performance in order to manage existing architectures and ensure service quality regardless of the underlying technology—all the while meeting their bottom-line objectives. The challenges that stand in their way include:

  • Multiple technology testing—DSn/PDH, SONET/SDH, Ethernet
  • Service level agreement (SLA) tracking and validation
  • 24/7 monitoring of the physical infrastructure and of the quality of service (QoS)
  • CAPEX and OPEX reduction
  • Optimization of the customers’ quality of experience
