• POS-3500B OC-12c/STM-4 and OC-3c/STM-1, 1-Port, Multi-Mode module
• POS-3500Bs OC-12c/STM-4 and OC-3c/STM-1, 1-Port, Single- Mode module
• POS-3502A OC-3c/STM-1, 1-Port, Multi-Mode module
• POS-3502As OC-3c/STM-1, 1-Port, Single-Mode module
Module Type: SmartMetrics Packet over SONET modules.
Where Used: SMB-600 and SMB-6000B.
Applications
Supported:
• SmartWindow, SmartLib, SmartFlow, BGP Router Test, and ScriptCenter.
• ASTII application is available only on the POS-3500B module.
Devices Tested: POS routers and networks.
Test Objective: Performs frame-level testing at full OC-12c/STM-4 and OC-3c/STM-1 wire rate for
Packet over SONET/SDH routers.
Tests high-speed inter-networking between POS and either Gigabit-Ethernet, Fast-
Ethernet, ATM, or Frame Relay devices via Spirent Communications unique
SmartMetrics Layer 2, 3, and higher tests. Simulates the millions of client and server
sessions required to fully test POS systems.
