The SONET/SDH Signal Delay WAN Simulator is available on a 2U rack-mount chassis that supports up to 7 software loads. There are two platforms available:

• The Maui platform supports up to four blades and data rates up to 2.6Gbps.
• The Hawaii platform supports up to two blades and data rates up to 11.3Gbps.

 Supported rates

• OC-3/STM-1 (155.52Mbps)
• OC-12/STM-4 (622.08Mbps)
• OC-48/STM-16 (2.488Gbps)
• OC-192/STM-64 (9.953Gbps)

 Delay

• Insert up to 4sec delay at OC-3 rates, 1sec delay at OC12 rates, and 250ms delay at OC48 rates.
• Introduce delay with no pointer movements and no modification of TOH, POH or payload bytes.
• Increase maximum delay with a Delay Doubler and Quadrupler (even greater delay amounts are available upon request).

 Error

• Set error rates from 10^-12 to 10^-2.
• Inject errors at a fixed rate (periodic) or randomly with a Uniform, Poisson or Gaussian distribution.
• Error 1 bit, 32 contiguous bits or a 32-bit user-defined error pattern.
• Simulate loss of signal, loss of frame and/or squelch mode under user or program control.

 Operation

• Configure via a front panel LCD control for standalone operation
• Configure remotely via an Ethernet control port
• Interactive: Browser-based GUI with save/load capability
• Automated: Powerful TCL script library
