MetroNet 5000
Ethernet and IP Test Set
Trilithic’s MetroNet 5000 series offers comprehensive test and monitoring functions to isolate and solve problems in the network core, edge, NOC and data center.
The Complete 10GbE Test Set for Carrier Ethernet and LAN
As Metro Ethernet Networks play an increasingly critical role in linking core fiber transport networks with access infrastructures, they continue to integrate new technologies, such as 10GbE. As a result, cable, telecom and wireless service providers need flexible testing solutions that deliver both sophisticated test capabilities and true field portability.
Trilithic's new MetroNet 5000™ series offers comprehensive test and monitoring functions to isolate and solve problems in the network core, edge, NOC and data center. Designed for construction, customer turn-up and maintenance applications, each model offers numerous built-in tests for complete Ethernet, IP , VoIP and LAN testing in one small, lightweight handheld.
Complete Ethernet, IP and LAN testing in a lightweight, field-ready package.
The MetroNet 5000 also offers dual 10GbE interfaces, allowing you to do in-line monitoring and testing for faster problem resolution. The series includes four models with different port configurations but the same robust complement of software functions for cable, telecom and wireless service provider testing applications.
- MetroNet 5020 - Two GbE Interfaces
- MetroNet 5100 - One 10GbE Interface
- MetroNet 5120 - One 10GbE Interface and Two GbE Interfaces
- Metronet 5200 - Two 10GbE Interfaces
Dual 10 GbE Ports for In-line Testing
The MetroNet 5000 allows technicians to perform in-line and wrap-around testing at 10GbE, opening up a whole new suite of testing scenarios that provide faster problem resolution and better customer experiences.
Rugged, Lightweight Design Ideal for Field Use
Lightweight (under 3 lbs.) and durable, the compact handheld test set provides an economical solution for sophisticated testing in demanding field environments. It has the functionality of much more expensive test systems but the ease of use that is a hallmark of Trilithic systems.
Powerful Packet and Frame Filtering
Based on field content, the user can select which types of packets or frames are transmitted, looped back, received and measured. This allows the user to focus measurement on a particular type of traffic (e.g., IPTV) or filter several types of traffic into a custom stream that emulates a particular carrier service.
Port Traffic Flooding
The user has the flexibility to flood port traffic for stress testing of network equipment like routers and switches, simulate distributed denial of service attacks and other intrusions, and design or mark packet content to emulate viruses and other security breaches.
Sophisticated Reporting and Graphing
The MetroNet 5000 provides report generation and graphing capabilities typically found only in larger and higher-priced systems. The ability to generate reports in histogram, bar, pie and line graph formats and easily convert them to PDF files enables service providers to deliver detailed reporting to customers and management.
Line-Rate Packet Capture and Analysis
With optional packet and frame capture based on uniquely settable filters, the MetroNet 5000 enables the user to capture specifically the traffic to be measured, making it easier to troubleshoot network problems.
