Anue Systems’ WAN Emulator

Protecting wide area networks (WANs) from potential disaster is crucial. Before a network with critical functionality is deployed, it must be tested under real application conditions to determine how reliable it is and how well it recovers from various types of errors. Determining the effects of delays and impairments is vital when emulating the WAN. Distance, congestion, and the ever-changing combination of components are creating even more complex delay situations and associated errors that require investigation. The Anue WAN Emulator helps to identify and address errors in a safe environment where they won't affect your customers and your bottom line.

It's better to crash in your lab than in the real world!

The Anue WAN Emulator precisely simulates signal delays and impairments that occur during transmission of data. Our WAN Emulator helps you find network weaknesses before deployment. After you address the weaknesses, the WAN Emulator is again used to determine if the fix worked.

The Anue WAN Emulator is the easiest, most cost effective way to simulate delays and impairments over Fibre Channel, Copper, Ethernet and/or SONET/SDH WANs. Delays and impairments are programmable so you can test various scenarios with a single WAN Emulator. Also, the same Anue product may be configured for several protocols at different data rates.

Market leadership

Anue WAN Emulators are based on customer requested capabilities, and as a result, bring significant value to the engineers validating WANs. Anue Systems is dedicated to providing advanced WAN Emulation solutions with superior performance and functionality.

Anue's multi-protocol WAN Emulators are perfect for stress testing networks and network devices. You can use the Anue WAN Emulator to delay a Fibre Channel, copper or optical Ethernet, or SONET (OC3 to OC192) signal a user-specified amount of time without modifying the data. This simulates the latency that occurs over WANs, MANs and interconnected storage area networks (SANs) much more accurately than using software based simulators. The Anue WAN Emulator can progressively increase the injected bit errors and can error or eliminate specific packets to facilitate the testing of signal fail/degrade algorithms.
