EXFO has launches its new BrixNGN Infrastructure Performance Suite, designed to provide service providers with enhanced visibility into the performance of network infrastructure in the context of its impact on service quality.
As network equipment transitions to virtualised and software-centric architectures, the need to monitor performance while guaranteeing the availability and response time of critical network services is essential to ensuring smooth and uninterrupted network operation. With the sharing of hardware capabilities among virtualised equipment, CSPs can easily lose visibility over equipment performance which may lead to poor quality, service outages and much longer repair times.
With added support for control and provisioning of specific devices from Cisco, Juniper, RAD and others, the Infrastructure Performance Suite makes BrixNGN the perfect platform for wireless backhaul and business services.
“With the ability to address both existing and emerging technologies, BrixNGN is critical to ensuring infrastructure performance and to meeting the challenges that come with the shift to software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualisation (NFV),” said Claudio Mazzuca, vice president of EXFO’s Transport and Service Assurance Division. “BrixNGN ensures the successful delivery of services-virtual or otherwise, by providing operators with a comprehensive view of both network and service performance.”
