IP Network Emulation
Simena's IP Network Emulator emulates real transmission conditions of the IP or Internet network, such as latency, transmission bandwidth, packet loss, jitter, etc. Network Emulator is required for equipment manufacturers, operators and network integrators at the laboratory tests of the telecommunication equipment and networks as well at the test of quality parameters (QoS) of the telecommunication services.
It emulates these network conditions at Ethernet layer by capturing and processing the data packets transparently for network users without any configuration change on the networks or servers. Emulator is transparent for all protocols as for example IP, IPX, AppleTalk, TCP, HTTP, VoIP and others.
Network Emulator is offered in three versions: NE100, NE1000 and NE2000.
