Brief Brochure

Register




Fitted with two 10/100/1000Base-T and two 1000Base-X ports, the MX120 literally doubles and duplicates the test capabilities and features available on the MX100 however it also offers several unique capabilities at the same time. Independent configuration and dual port operation of each test port makes bi-directional and in-service traffic monitoring a simple task. Fiber Channel testing at 1 and 2Gbps rates are supported as software options and make use of the same multi-rate Gigabit Ethernet SFP transceivers thereby reducing costs. The price/performance ratio of the MX120 is unrivalled in the industry.
