Network Emulators - FC Delay & Impairments

Fibre Channel Network Emulators

FC - SAN Delay and Impairment

Anue Fibre Channel SAN Simulators are ideal for testing remote data storage, backup and recovery solutions in a lab environment. Fibre Channel SAN Simulators can reproduce the delay and impairments experienced by Fibre Channel traffic as it travels over long distances of optical fiber.

Does your solution:

Work properly in the presence of delay?
Have enough buffer credits?
Detect and handle bit errors?
Accommodate dropped frames and loss of signal?

Anue Fibre Channel Network Simulators:

Run 100% line rate traffic from 1Gbps to 10Gbps
Can be automated or operated interactively, locally or remotely
Are accurate down to one-bit time increments
Provide delay of 250ms or more at all bit rates

Anue Fibre Channel SAN Simulators

Anue Fibre Channel Simulators provide distance simulation for one, two, four, eight and ten gigabit-per-second Fibre Channel signals. Configurable impairments include controlled error injection for BER testing and frame drop and loss of signal (LOS) conditions.

Fibre Channel SAN Simulators can be configured and controlled locally using the front panel, or remotely via an Ethernet connection. The included software package allows remote control using either a Graphical User Interface or through a TCL API, which allows for easy automation of common tasks.

FC SAN Simulator Product Features

Note: Up to 7 software loads for different protocols (SONET, SDH, OTN, Ethernet, Fibre Channel, CPRI) can be combined on the same SAN Simulator. A combo system can easily switch between different features, data rates and protocols, simplifying testing and leveraging your investment. [view Network Emulator Combo products ]
