    Organizations are expected to support richer services, more traffic and more types of traffic with decreasing budgets for equipment and personnel. This poses tough questions for manufacturers and enterprises. Can the device or network:

    • Support thousands of users while meeting service-level agreements?
    • Forward bursty traffic at high bit rates without dropping frames?
    • Handle flooded traffic and large Access Control Lists without affecting performance?
    • Achieve the forwarding rates required by low-latency applications while maintaining throughput?
    • Deliver lossless performance under congested conditions?
    • Enforce effective security measures while maintaining throughput and latency thresholds?
    • Maintain high availability even under adverse network conditions?
    • Failover properly in the case of a disaster or outage?

    Spirent TestCenter focuses the most flexible, scalable and reliable test system in the industry on testing the highly-integrated, converged, anything-over-anything networks of today and tomorrow.

    More economical. Use Spirent TestCenter to decrease the cost of testing with Topology Emulation (TE), the only single-system solution available for realistic testing of multi-play services and control and data plane protocols over MPLS networks.

    More effective. Improve product quality with increased test realism. The multi-dimensional architecture of Hypermetrics test modules makes this possible by enabling you to scale the number of ports, subscribers, sessions, routes, tunnels, VLANs and stateful multi-play traffic on demand.

    More efficient. Improve productivity by reducing time to test with test wizards, reducing the time to capture results and interpret them with Intelligent Results, and reducing the time to automate test cases with NoCode™ automation.
