Offering highly advanced features and a variety of modulation formats optimized to upgrade existing systems to the highest capacity, ASN’s upgrade solutions deliver the lowest price per transported bit. Upgradability tests can be performed on in-house test-beds to simulate the target system performance, or using specially designed portable test equipment.
