The Torrent 6100 LTS (LTE Test System) builds on the success of the Torrent 5100 3G test system and the Torrent 7100 WiMAX test system to deliver a new test platform for comprehensive testing of the LTE core network. Availability: 2H09. Key Benefits Faster time to market Reduced development and test effort Performance and capacity confidence Subscriber QoE / QoS assurance

As shown above, the Torrent 6100 consists of a suite of subsystems that work together in a unified manner to provide a realistic, high performance, lineraly-scalable LTE core network test solution. Although it's not illustrated here for clarity, there is a central controller for the system which is Linux based. This central controller, or CS-6100, automatically configures, starts, and directs the traffic servers in the system to run tests as directed by the user through a GUI interface.

The MTS-6100 traffic server authentically simulates hundreds of thousands mobile terminals and hundreds of enhanced Node Bs on a Linux machine (here both figures are conservative estimates based on our experience with the 4100, 5100, and 7100). The MME-6100 simulates the Mobility Management Entity, or alternatively can be replaced with the MME under test. Similarly the SGW-6100 and PGW-6100 simulate the Serving Gateway and Packet Data Network Gateways respectively, and like the MME-6100 may be replaced with their counterparts under test as desired. Finally, the NTS-6100 provides a convenient aggregation of network servers (MMS, PoC, WAP, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, etc.).

As the Torrent 6100 driving experience and feature set will be very similar to that of the Torrent 7100 WTS, so please refer to the 7100 product description page or contact sales for further information.

Terminology Note: It is important to note as with all members of the Torrent family, each 'simulated' node, such as the MME-6100, performs realistic emulation in real time of it's commercial world counterpart. So technically it would be more correct to use the term 'emulation,' however we use simulation because it's more often used in the field.
