The MP1590B Network Performance Tester can be used to make performance tests and jitter measurements of previous PDH, DSn, SDH/SONET, and OTN-related equipment and devices as well as OTN, EoS, virtual concatenation, and LCAS measurements of so-called next-generation networks. It uses the Ethernet plug-in modules from the Anritsu MD1230 IP Tester series to provide a single- cabinet measurement solution for IP networks. It supports use of the 10M/100M, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet modules used by the Anritsu MD1230A without modifications, permitting genuine IP measurements such as QoS under various conditions, multi stack VLAN, and different send clocks. Since each unit/module can be used independently, multiple layers such as OTN, SDH/SONET, Ethernet, IP and TCP/UDP can be measured. A single MP1590B supports PDH (2.048, 8.448, 34.368, 139.264 Mbit/s), DSn (1.554, 44.736 Mbit/s), STM-0/1/64, STS- 1/3/192 electrical interfaces, as well as STM-0/1/4/16/64, STS- 1/3/12/48/192, OUT-1, and OUT-2 optical interfaces. Jitter generation to SDH/SONET(52-9953 MHz), OTU-1(2.66 GHz), OTU-2 (10.71 GHz) and 10.3 GHz standards can be measured using the built-in 10/10.7G Jitter Unit. Jitter Tolerance and Jitter Transfer characteristics can be measured in accordance with ITU-T Rec. G.783, G.825, G.8251, and Telcordia GR-253 recommendations. The MP1590B also supports setting/monitoring of all overheads for OTU-1 (2.66 Gbit/s) and OTU-2 (10.71 Gbit/s) conforming to ITU-T G.709. It also supports multi-frame OH.
