Ethernet based access, aggregation and regional transport network infrastructures are on the increase worldwide, with many operators already implementing 1 and 10 Gbps Ethernet transmission services between locations and aggregation points, and preparing high-speed mobile backhaul links for future mobile technologies such as LTE.

To remain competitive, network service providers must verify network performance according to SLA, under periods of network congestion, to determine what the real end user can be guaranteed to experience in boundary network scenarios.

Pre-deployment testing also includes functional and compliance testing of Ethernet OAM and MEF standards for Carrier Ethernet, ideally suited for the joint solution Xena has created with company Veryx Technologies.
