This unit

The Spirent SmartBits SMB-200 with dual GX-1405B modules is a portable Gigabit Ethernet performance analysis system built for on-site testing and certification of network infrastructure. This compact platform combines a four-slot chassis with two single-port 1000Base-SX fiber modules, enabling high-speed traffic generation, monitoring, and protocol conformance verification. The system supports full-duplex operations and delivers the measurement accuracy, scalability, and remote control capabilities required for network validation in field and laboratory environments.
