CT964-2U-4x1G
LANforge-ICE 1Gbps WAN Emulator with 32GB RAM
The CT964-2U-4x1G is an excellent choice for a 2U rackmount network emulator supporting speeds up to 990Mbps (bi-directional) on 4 pairs of 1Gbps Ethernet ports (8 ports total). The CT964-2U-4x1G comes standard with 32GB RAM to support multiple seconds of latency.
The CT964-2U-4x1G fits into a standard rack and is only 14 nches deep. It supports standard VGA, Keyboard, and Mouse interfaces for easy console/desktop access.
The CT964-2U-4x1G is relatively noisy, so it is better suited for data center deployment than a desktop environment. The CT962 hardware can support additional WAN emulations. For information on ejecting the NVME drive tray, consult this guide.

Software Features
- General purpose WAN and Network impairment emulator.
- Able to simulate independent DSL, CableModern, Satellite links and other rate-limited networks, from 10bps up to 1Gbps (full duplex). Total aggregate throughput will not exceed 1Gbps
- Can modify various network attributes including: network speed, latency, jitter, packet-loss packet-reordering, and packet-duplication.
- Supports Packet corruptions, including bit-flips, bit-transposes, and byte-overwrites
- Supports WanPath features to allow configuration of specific behavior between different IP subnets, MAC addresses, or other packet filters using a single pair of physical interfaces.
- Supports routed and bridged mode for more flexibility in how you configure your network and LANforge-ICE.
- Supports WAN emulation across virtual 802.1Q VLAN interfaces.
- Supports WAN-Playback, allowing one to capture the characteristics of a live WAN and later have LANforge-ICE emulate those captured characteristics.
- Allows packet sniffing and network protocol decoding with the integrated Wireshark protocol sniffer.
- Includes comprehensive management information detailing all aspects of the LANforge system including processor statistics, test cases, and Ethernet port statistics.
- GUI runs as Java application on Linux, MAC, and Microsoft Operating Systems (among others).
- GUI can run remotely, even over low-bandwidth links to accomodate the needs of the users.
- CIncludes easy built-in scripting to automatically iterate through bandwidth, latency, and other settings.
