: RADCOM Ltd announced the immediate availability of the R4000 Performer
platform. The new platform is a rack-mount 5U server that supports
eight generic front-end processors (GenFEPs). GenFEPs are a protocol,
technology and rate independent hardware solution that supports a
wide range of multi-port line interface modules. Powered by RADCOM's
highly successful GEAR, a proprietary, full custom ASIC chip-based
processor, the R4000 can boost the performance of most Performer VoIP,
cellular and data communications test applications by a factor of
four.
The
new platform supports the Global Positioning System (GPS), Network
Time Protocol (NTP) and local synchronization for precise time-related
measurement including round-trip delays; device, network and end-to-end
latencies, etc. that are required in many test applications including
gateway and multi-layer switch testing.
The R4000 is a
best value solution that supports 3G Cellular & telecom convergence
testing by offering multi-interface, multi-technology, multi-user
and multi-application support from a single platform. By adding inter-changeable
line interface modules, customers can add technologies as needed.
"Today, high-port
density, modularity and future-proof ability are factors of paramount
importance to both equipment manufacturers and service providers,
as control over capital and operational expenditures remains top of
mind. RADCOM's R4000 Performer platform not only meets these customer
demands but also enables end-users to capitalize on the growing market
opportunity created by the convergence of VoIP and cellular technologies.
In a nutshell, RADCOM's R4000 translates into immense value to customers",
says Jessy Cavazos, Sector Leader of the Communication Test &
Measurement Group at Frost & Sullivan.
"The significant
performance enhancement, flexibility and high-port density the R4000
brings our customers gives them confidence that their investment offers
a growth path that will support their advanced and evolving network
testing needs," said Dudi Ripstein, RADCOM's General Manager
of Products and Technologies.
