To meet the growing consumer demand for higher mobile bandwidth, mobile providers are preparing to deploy next-generation 4G LTE. A critical component of this global deployment is the ability of service providers, operators and network equipment manufacturers to verify the performance of mobile backhaul and Carrier Ethernet networks to deliver accurate synchronization and time of day information.

The full potential of 4G LTE can only be realized with the accurate delivery of synchronization and time of day information through Carrier Ethernet-based mobile backhaul networks. These networks use new technologies such as IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and Synchronous Ethernet, which require new methods of performance testing. The Anue 3500 v1.1 is the industry’s most comprehensive IEEE 1588 / PTP performance testing solution available, testing both frequency stability and time of day accuracy under real-world conditions.

“As our customers look to increase their competitive advantage and create new revenue opportunities by deploying 4G LTE, real-world performance testing prior to deployment becomes crucial,” said Jason Nutt, director of Anue System’s Test and Measurement Business Unit. “The capabilities of the Anue 3500 v1.1 are designed to help service providers test their network infrastructure under real-world conditions, enabling them to reduce risk and improve performance.”

The Anue 3500 v1.1 offers a number of new capabilities designed to simplify network testing, including:

  • Time of day and frequency stability testing
  • Full real-time measurement and analysis with automatic pass / fail results
  • Test automation API
  • Higher Ethernet test port count
