The Paragon-neo is the latest platform from Calnex, providing PTP and SyncE testing of speeds up to 100GbE. It’s designed to meet the stringent test requirements of NEMs who are developing, verifying and manufacturing devices against enhanced timing standards such as for ITU-T G.8273.2 Class-C/D Boundary Clocks, O-RAN compliant O-DU and O-RU equipment, and for those designing and deploying 5G networks and systems.

Features

• Industry-leading Time Error solution delivering sub-ns accuracy - essential for validating 5G network devices.

• Addresses all 5G Enhanced Time requirements up to 100GbE.

• Validate SyncE Jitter and Wander, ESMC and PTP to ITU-T G.826x and G.827x standards.

• Emulate PTP clocks to maximise accuracy and repeatability of PTP test, including specific test modes for various DUTs and automatic test selection for ITU-T and O-RAN standards conformance.

• Generate SyncE wander and jitter for ITU-T G.8262.1/G.8262 testing, simultaneously measure SyncE wander and PTP Time Error, and control ESMC message generation for testing to ITU-T G.8264.

• Analyse PTP conformance to standardsbased or user-defined profiles, with automatic indication of pass/fail (and reason for non-compliance) and report generation.
