NetScout EXG-200 - EtherScope nXG, Portable Network Expert

• Saving time and cost of travel
• Test, verify, and troubleshoot technology upgrades
• Seamlessly consolidate and manage field test data
• Verify up to 10G Ethernet link performance for critical servers
• Assess and document complex network deployments with multiple VLANs and Wi-Fi SSIDs

The EtherScope nXG Portable Network Expert is a multi-technology, all-in-one handheld network tester that enables engineers and technicians to get more done faster, from deployment to maintenance and documentation of their ever-changing Wi-Fi and Ethernet access networks. With its simple operation, yet in-depth visibility, and the ability to remotely access and control EtherScope nXG, engineers can now fully enable and leverage the "local hands" of field technicians to expedite problem-solving.

All-in-one to address new technology upgrades

An Android-based handheld network tester that verifies, discovers and troubleshoots Wi-Fi and Ethernet network infrastructures

• Native 4×4 Wi-Fi that supports:
  • 802.11a/b/g/n/ac (wave 2) Wi-Fi network connectivity
  • Wi-Fi 6 network visibility
  • Analysis of SSIDs, BSSIDs, channel, client devices, and interference sources
• Ethernet port supports:
  • 10/100/1000Mbps to 2.5/5/10G
  • Verifies loaded power from 90W PoE switch

Built-in Bluetooth v5/BLE and USB interfaces to discover and configure nearby device

Auditing and documenting network security and health

Discover network devices across multiple VLANs and Wi-Fi SSIDs through four Wi-Fi and Ethernet interfaces upon power up

Powerful filter and sort function with automatic problem detection identifies issues such as:

• Duplicate IPs
• Congested switch ports
• Oversubscribed Wi-Fi channels/SSIDs
• Security issues, such as unknown switches, access points with open authentication and unencrypted APs

Path Analysis shows the switch/router path to any connected device

10G copper/fiber wired and Wi-Fi performance tests for critical links and key devices

Simultaneously generate and measure up to four streams of IP-based traffic through the Ethernet test port to:

• Load the network with up to full 10G line-rate traffic
• Test for packet loss, delay, and jitter

Supports popular iPerf network throughout testing for Wi-Fi and Wired networks

Simplifies tasks and empowers technicians to verify complex networks with next generation AutoTest

• Out-of-the-box AutoTest profiles for Wi-Fi and wired networks that can be customized for your network
• Execute multiple AutoTest profiles that shorten test time to verify multiple VLANs and Wi-Fi SSIDs
• Define and assign groups of targets to AutoTest profiles to verify performance using ping, TCP Connect, Web, or FTP
• Packet capture from Wi-Fi and Ethernet to PCAP file

Automated test results management

• Complimentary Link-Live Cloud Service stores test result and site data upload for automated reporting and documentation
• Available API enables seamless data integration between Link-Live and trouble-ticket or network management systems
