Delay Simulator


PacketStorm has a full family of emulators with a delay simulator features. Typical uses include WAN emulation and delay simulator products for enterprises, devices, and software applications. The family of network simulators and IP emulators ranges from the Tornado software to the 40 Gbps PacketStorm4XG. All of the hardware IP emulators and the PSCapture software have recording capabilities. PacketStorm's recording captures the characteristics which can be transferred and replayed in a PacketStorm hardware emulator. PSCapture software provides real time graphs and histograms with the network simulator and has delay simulator packet impairment features.

Bandwidth Simulator


The ability to deliver the high bandwidth simulator at an acceptable price and overcoming the imperfect world of IP networks; IP video applications have struggled with these two main challenges for high quality video experience. Relatively inexpensive DSL and cable modem services have helped to solve some of the issues, but typically the achieved bandwidth simulator is much lower than the published access data rate. New techniques lower the requirements needed for quality transmission and compression methods are two ways currently being developed to address the bandwidth simulator issue.

Bandwidth Simulation


In addition to high bandwidth simulation, high quality video must overcome the imperfect world of IP networks. There is another very important factor that must be designed for: The imperfect world of IP networks. Network impairments are expected in bandwidth simulation and IP communications. Network delays, dropped packets, traffic congestion, reordered packets, fragmented packets, and duplicated packets are all facts of life in IP communications and bandwidth simulation. Many higher level protocols such as TCP are designed with error correction mechanisms to ensure that data is moved nearly error free from point to point. TCP bandwidth simulation dictates that endpoints resend packets when errors.

WAN Simulation


Packetstorm WAN simulation units have the capability to capture and save actual network impairment characteristics. The PacketStorm 'network capture' WAN simulation feature launches test packets to a remote site and measure the characteristics of that link. These real world impairments are then stored as an impairment set that can be reused in a lab environment. These captured impairments are implemented by impairing traffic on a packet by packet basis so that any real network impairments that may vary due to time or event, are captured and replayed through WAN simulation. In addition, the PacketStorm can capture and replay live data to provide generation and impairments while not connected to the production network through WAN simulation.

Network Simulators


PacketStorm Communications has a full family of IP network simulators, emulators and network recording devices. Typical uses include WAN emulation and network simulators for enterprises, devices, and software applications. The family of IP network simulators and emulators ranges from the Tornado software to the 40 Gbps PacketStorm4XG. All of the hardware IP emulators and the PSCapture software have network recording capabilities. Each IP emulator is designed for a particular application. The Tornado software emulator addresses low bandwidth and simple applications. The PacketStorm1800E emulator addresses multiple 10/100 Mbps port applications. The PacketStorm2600E, Hurricane, and Hurricane II are designed for gigabit and/or many 10/100 Mbps port applications. All of the hardware emulators and network simulators use the same graphic user interface.

WAN Simulator

IP Emulator


Video over IP emulator applications have soared in popularity over the last five years. Companies have increased their IP emulator and video conferencing usage as a means to reduce travel expenses, speed up the lead time needed to hold critical meetings, and offer investors access to high level board meetings. Traditional phone service providers are rushing to provide video services as a way of locking in customers and increasing revenues. Cable TV operators have been steadily upgrading their analog systems to offer consumers enhanced digital services. All of these IP emulator applications focus on delivering digital video content over data services. IP emulator services are dominant.
