QoE is not solely a function of network bandwidth, voice and video transport stream metrics, and/ or traic characteristics, but is rather a function of how all features and services interact with each other from the end user’s perspective. A PacketPortal-enabled SFProbe can replace virtually any Gigabit SFP to feed voice, video, and signaling packets to the TPA application for analysis. Supporting over 500 network protocols, the TPA application let providers isolate the root of problems quickly and easily. Now, providers can have the visibility they need to solve the most complex, costly, and diicult-to-ind network problems—all from a central location.
