The company claims that its SunLite GigE provides multi-stream, multi-service testing capability for installation and maintenance of differentiated ethernet and triple-play services.

Using the SunLite GigE, field technicians can verify end-to-end transport of gigabit ethernet and IP traffic, transmit and analyze eight independent streams and run test methodology based on RFC2544. Technicians can use the SunLite GigE to determine throughput, link utilization, latency, and IP connectivity. In addition, the SunLite GigE's 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-X interfaces enable copper and fiber gigabyte eathernet (GigE) testing in the same tester.

Bahaa Moukadam, vice president of marketing at Sunrise Telecom, said: "Telcos' and cable operators' urgent need for a quantum leap in productivity improvement and CapEx reduction has been addressed with this breakthrough product."
