ClearSight Networks has released version 7.0 of its network capture appliance, Network Time Machine. This latest enhancement enables network administrators to quantify voice quality on 3G mobile networks and meet the demands of increased network traffic and mobile Internet services.
Meeting the challenge of maximizing the quality of service (QoS) related to voice transmissions in wireless communications, ClearSight says it is now able to deliver a high quality end-to-end mobile VoIP experience. The NTM 7.0 captures and analyzes data from audio and visual network transmissions – such as video conferencing, multimedia entertainment services, telemedicine, surveillance, live video broadcasting and video-on-demand – and makes meaningful measurements using MOS, R-values and other metrics.
ClearSight has recently expanded the NTM feature set into the 10 Gb/s Ethernet arena; extended its reach to small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with the availability of ClearSight Network Time Machine Express, a turn-key data capture and analysis system for enterprises looking for a cost-effective network recorder appliance; and enabled a new level of interoperability with Wireshark, a popular software protocol analyzer. The company’s also announced what it calls the world's fastest and most secure NTM using RAIDed 6 Gb/s Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) drives and supporting hardware level data encryption.
