Apposite's Linktropy and Netropy WAN emulators simulate bandwidth, latency, jitter, loss, congestion, and other important network impairments to test the performance of applications under a spectrum of real-world conditions.

If you're not sure which product is best suited for your requirements, give us a call or send us an email and we'll be happy to recommend the most appropriate, cost-effective product and model for your testing needs.

Netropy advanced network emulators simulate up to 30 separate WAN links, each with their own bandwidth, delay, and loss characteristics, through each pair of physical ports. Packets can be assigned to individual links by IP address range, VLAN, or any other packet specifier.

Netropy also offers advanced emulation and administrative capabilities for complex requirements or multi-user environments.

The Netropy 10G1 model simulates links up to 10 Gbps in an affordable, 1U system. The 10G2 doubles the capacity to simulate two separate 10 Gbps links through two pairs of SFP+ ports. The Netropy N61 emulates links up to 1 Gbps while the N91 provides 4 x 1G capabilities at full line rate. The Netropy 100G emulates links up to 100 Gbps. All models are available at a variety of maximum emulation speeds for users who do not need the full capacity of the device.
To model complex network topologies, run multiple concurrent tests select the Netropy network emulator.

Linktropy WAN emulators simulate a single link through each pair of interfaces, offering the simplest configuration possible. If you need to emulate a single set of conditions between two networks, Linktropy is the product for you.

Linktropy Models:

• Linktropy Mini-G: Basic, low cost emulator up to 1 Gbps in a portable form factor
• Linktropy 5510: Lab-quality emulator simulating a single WAN link up to 1 Gbps
• Linktropy 8510: Lab-quality emulator simulating four separate gigabit speed WAN links through four pairs of GigE ports
