1. NuTEA-551 Overview
1.1. NuTEA-551 General Description
NuTEA-551 is a network impairment device that impairs
Ethernet network to emulate unstable network conditions,
especially networks with complex topology, such as Internet
in public network.
It is a compact, lightweight, and highly cost-effective device
that provides the function to simulate Ethernet traffic
impairment situation, such as CRC Error Packet, Packet
Corruption, Packet Drop, Packet Order Exchanging
(Re-order), Packet Duplicate, Delay, Jitter, and Limiting
Packet Transferring Rate. Variables regarding to these impairments can be set with accurate
high-precision and apply for all kinds of Devices under Test (DUTs).
With functions mentioned above, NuTEA-551 is capable of emulating almost any possible error that could
happen in real-world network environments. While developing network products, it is crucial to
understand how these under developing products would perform or react when network errors occur.
NuTEA-551’s impairment emulating capabilities allow manufacturers to perform tests with their products
in labs. Also, NuTEA-551 can emulate packet delay and packet jitter as well, and the packet delay/jitter
time can be set in milliseconds (ms) or microseconds (
μs).
NuTEA-551 provides a controllable blemish network environment for manufacturers to test their products’
performances within lab network environments. With NuTEA-551’s capability to set and change network
impairment settings dynamically, it is easy for users to build a customized network environment for
product demo or testing product’s specific function.
Embedded with Voltage-Controlled Crystal Oscillator (VCXO), NuTEA-551 can be adjusted to match/jitter
its PHY chip’s frequency within the range of ±100 ppm via utility software.
Also, NuTEA-551 supports Maximum Impairment Limit, which allows users to set the number of times for
error emulations with NuTEA-551’s utility software.
