EDM-1003B In Stock

The EDM-1003B by Spirent is a high-performance Series 1000 test module designed for cost-effective and scalable testing of Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionalities, routing protocol emulation, and performance and conformance requirements in Gigabit Ethernet networks. The EDM-1003B features 12 ports, each equipped with 2 connectors, and is housed in a 9 rack mount unit chassis, allowing for multi-user access. Up to six users can operate the module simultaneously.

With support for dual media interfaces and up to 16,384 streams per port, the EDM-1003B offers a cost-effective solution for both production test environments and research and development settings that don't require extensive scalability performance testing. When combined with a compatible chassis, the EDM-1003B enables production testing at a high volume that demands high-density and cost-efficient Ethernet ports. The module's affordability extends to its capability for benchmarking network device limitations and scalability. It allows for a comprehensive comparison and validation of network equipment, ensuring the suitability of specific applications before deployment.

By utilizing the EDM-1003B, organizations can guarantee the advanced network device performance, including scalability protocols, performance metrics, routing protocols, VLAN tagging, SLA bandwidth verification, QoS class prioritization, and overall host/client capacities and throughput. The EDM-1003B offers traffic generation of both wire-rate and beyond wire-rate in addition to analysis at Layers 3 and 2, supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet fiber connections. Moreover, its field-programmable hardware allows for in-chassis upgrades tailored to specific applications.

The EDM-1003B seamlessly integrates with TestCenter software applications and provides extensive support for a wide range of core technologies necessary to test Enterprise L3/L2 switches. Real-time per-stream statistics, real-time event logs for protocol messaging, and HyperFilters technologies for receiving, tracking, inspecting, and accumulating statistics are also available. Additionally, the EDM-1003B features a user-friendly graphical field editor, enabling custom frame and packet editing. This editor allows users to modify templates for a diverse selection of preconfigured control and data plane packets, further enhancing testing capabilities.
