Introduction

Tessabyte Throughput Test is an application for testing the performance of a wireless or wired network. This utility continuously sends TCP and UDP data streams across your network and computes important metrics, such as upstream and downstream throughput values, packet loss, jitter, and round-trip time, and displays the results in both numeric and chart formats. Tessabyte Throughput Test supports both IPv4 and IPv6 connections and allows the user to evaluate network performance depending on the Quality of Service (QoS) settings.

In addition to this core functionality, the application can generate reports in HTML and text formats, conduct pre-scheduled tests, and allows customization of TCP and UDP payloads.

Tessabyte Throughput Test can be used for:

• Network Capacity Testing: Assess the maximum data transfer rate that a network link can support.
• Link Quality Analysis: Determine the quality of individual network links.
• Testing Network Congestion: Simulate high traffic loads and observe how the network behaves under congestion.
• WLAN Performance Evaluation: Test wireless networks for speed and reliability.
• Quality of Service (QoS) Assessment: Evaluate how different traffic types are prioritized in the network.
• Firmware and Hardware Updates Validation: Verify the impact of network device firmware or hardware upgrades.
• Network Topology Planning: Understand how network design choices impact performance.
• Troubleshooting Network Issues: Identify the root causes of performance degradation.
• Comparative Benchmarking: Compare the performance of different network components.
• Security Assessment: Evaluate the impact of security measures on network performance.
• Load Balancing Verification: Test the effectiveness of load balancing in a network.
• SLA Compliance Verification: Ensure that the network meets its Service Level Agreements.
• Hardware Compatibility Testing: Verify that all network devices work seamlessly together.
