The JDSU TestPoint TS-10 is a compact, portable network testing platform engineered for field deployment across telecommunications and datacom infrastructures. This fixed-interface chassis delivers layer-to-layer protocol analysis and traffic generation through a web browser interface, requiring no dedicated PC software. The TS-10 supports multi-protocol testing at rates up to 10 Gbps, including Ethernet, Fibre Channel, SONET/SDH, OTN, GFP, and ATM.
