Calnex Solutions announced a strategic collaboration with JDSU today. Under the agreement, JDSU will provide sales and technical support for the leading-edge Paragon family of test solutions from Calnex and incorporate the Paragon into JDSU’s Communications Test portfolio.
The Calnex Paragon has emerged as the leading solution to enable the migration of legacy networks to Next-Gen packet-based networks. The Paragon is able to capture profiles from real-networks and use these in test beds to prove the performance of equipment for real-world deployment.
