VeriWave Unveils WiMix

PORTLAND, Ore. -- VeriWave, the leader in wireless networking functional and performance analysis systems, is introducing the industry’s first test suite to accurately and reliably replicate real-world traffic models representative of vertical market usage. With pre-packaged traffic mixes from healthcare, education, office building, hot spot environments, government and law enforcement, VeriWave’s new WiMix ™ Real World Traffic Tests eliminate the guesswork associated with predicting how specific equipment and network configurations will perform when turned up in live environments. With this knowledge, IT managers, network planners and equipment manufacturers can safeguard end-users’ “quality of experience” (QoE) by subjecting networks to realistic traffic loads and profiles without risking security breaches, capacity and performance issues encountered in testing performance on production networks.

QoE is one of the toughest challenges facing wireless network planners particularly as the mix of applications grows and diversifies. By leveraging real-world traffic mixes and scalability, VeriWave’s groundbreaking approach allows equipment manufacturers, network integrators and service providers to offer solutions tailored to specific industries, and IT managers to verify vendor claims and test network designs without compromising mission critical applications.

Ben Gibson, Director of Mobility Solutions at Cisco says, “Cisco's Unified Wireless Network is designed to meet a wide range of applications, as well as serving as a foundation for industry-specific solutions, With WiMix and its ability to generate a wide variety of real-world business, government and municipal traffic mixes, we can take our solution validation process to the next level. This unique approach of simulating real-world network behavior in a single, integrated test system helps Cisco drive true, solution-level value to our wireless customers."
