Calnex SNE-X Network Emulator
  • Up to 28 ports allowing network impairment of hundreds of packet streams
  • 1 to 100GbE wire rate for emulating network conditions experienced by 5G services and applications
  • Low intrinsic latency – maximum intrinsic latency of 20µs is ideal for sensitive applications
  • High performance backplane allows for simultaneous testing of multiple devices with any to any port

Product Overview

The Calnex SNE-X is a multi-port, high-performance network emulator designed to drive product/application quality and reduce the cost of test with rigorous, scaleable test capability. The Calnex SNE-X offers:

  • Up to 28 ports -- allows network impairment of hundreds of packet streams simultaneously.
  • 1 to 100GbE wire rate -- for emulating network conditions experienced by 5G services and applications.
  • Low intrinsic latency -- maximum intrinsic latency of 20µs is ideal for simulating throughput-sensitive applications.
  • High performance backplane -- allows simultaneous testing with “Any Port to Any Port”™.


Key Features

The flexible Web UI enables you to drag and drop from the extensive list of impairments into your network “map” to create a range of impairment scenarios that can run simultaneously for fast, high-volume test.
