Integra Systems has partnered with Veriwave to offer our customers the most comprehensive testing of mission critical wireless networks.

One of the most difficult tasks of network managers in the healthcare industry is to balance network performance with patient safety. Infusion pumps, patient telemetry and other medical devices bring a new meaning to "Mission Critical Applications" when network failure and connectivity issues can put patients at risk and create life threatening situations. Integra Systems tackles the challenge by providing real time testing and analysis of your network. Integra Systems engineers can simulate thousands of clients on your network and accurately predict future bottlenecks caused by adding new equipment, additional users, and the introduction of new bandwidth hungry technology.

Integra Systems can also provide real time monitoring of your network so we can alert you performance issues before they become a problem.

Benefits:

  • Ability to develop and test your network with complex real-world scenarios
  • Determine the scaling ability of your WiFi systems for enterprise use and maximize bandwith ROI
  • Load systems under test with thousands of stateful and unique WLAN client sessions to pinpoint potential performance threats
  • Expose performance issues
  • Produce precise latency and jitter measurements, key metrics for voice over WiFi and video applications
  • Test controllers and/or switches using real APs loaded by thousands of clients
  • Detect and correct system flaws during development and prior to deployment
