Wi-Fi Professionals Can Quickly & Easily Optimize End User Experience
on 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Networks
WESTFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 3, 2017--
NETSCOUT
SYSTEMS, INC., (NASDAQ:NTCT), a leading provider of business
assurance, a powerful combination of service assurance, cybersecurity,
and business intelligence solutions, today announced new features in the
AirCheck G2, which allow Wi-Fi professionals to better address
performance problems on wireless networks.
Wi-Fi access is essential for a high-quality experience with today’s
mission-critical services. Whether critical business applications,
hotspot performance or residential over-the-top, enterprises and service
providers alike need to ensure reliable Wi-Fi performance and
connectivity. The newest version of AirCheck G2 addresses a major
challenge in Wi-Fi network testing – how to determine actual network
performance. By offering the ability to quickly and easily verify
throughput and performance, and detect non-802.11 interferers on the
Wi-Fi network, AirCheck G2 allows wireless network professionals to
determine how various impairments may impact the end-user experience.
Using an easy to deploy Test Accessory as a performance endpoint,
network performance degradations can be identified, pinpointing to the
Wi-Fi access, the LAN or even wide area connections. This release also
provides increased efficiencies with captive portal support, allowing
easy testing of guest Wi-Fi networks.
“Validating the throughput on a wireless network is critical to
maintaining top performance,” says Stefan Pracht, vice president and
general manager, Handheld Network Test Solutions, NETSCOUT. “These
latest improvements to AirCheck G2 deliver even higher accuracy
performance testing than predecessor versions.”
“The latest AirCheck G2 release, without question rounds out the
AirCheck G2, making it the most effective multiple purpose Wi-Fi
handheld analyzer on the market today,” said George Stefanick, wireless
architect, Houston Methodist Hospital. “The most recent v2 additions,
iPerf with the new Test Accessory and the ability to identify
interferers, has allowed my team to be more effective troubleshooters.
We no longer need to carry other devices for these tasks.”
Hear more from wireless architect and expert, George Stefanick as he
discusses how he and his team use AirCheck G2 and its latest features to
more effectively manage and troubleshoot the Wi-Fi network. View this
brief webinar.
AirCheck G2 and its latest features allows IT responders to easily and
accurately verify throughput and performance of the 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac
network, resulting in improved accurate troubleshooting. Learn more and
