About Calnex

Calnex Solutions is a global leader in Test & Measurement solutions for next-generation telecom networks. Our products help to prove new technologies that are being developed and deployed for new Mobile Backhaul, Carrier Ethernet and Packet Transport networks.

These new Mobile Backhaul technologies are a critical requirement as applications such as YouTube and devices such as the iPhone make significant new demands on networks and equipment.

We lead the way in testing and proving these technologies with cutting edge tools that provide insight and troubleshooting help to enable our customers to get their products to market quickly with confidence.

Our customer base includes major companies that operate Telecoms networks as well as leading makers of telecoms network equipment and components. We also supply equipment and services to testing laboratories, higher education and research establishments and the government sector.

Calnex has a prominent involvement in the relevant international standards organisations, such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T). Our leadership role at the ITU-T helps Calnex provide test solution for the very latest technologies.

Proving the Synchronisation (IEEE 1588, Sync-E), OAM (Y.1731, 802.1ag, etc.), MPLS-TP and Protection Switching (G.8031, G.8032) technologies is the final hurdle in making Ethernet manageable and truly carrier-class. More importantly, these technologies allow equipment manufacturers and service providers maintain Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for large enterprise customers, meet the requirements of global interconnect agreements, and ensure overall network resiliency.

To help equipment manufacturers and service providers deliver Next-Gen packet networks, Calnex’s industry-leading Paragon product line offers a powerful combination of all the relevant protocols and technologies to comprehensively test carrier Ethernet for proving the IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP), Synchronous Ethernet (Sync-E) and Y.1731 Ethernet OAM and MPLS-TP (OAM based on Y.1731).
