Octobox STApal-7
  • 802.11be up to 2x2 MIMO-OTA transmission
  • 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz 802.11be radios
  • STApal-7 support 6GHz Wi-Fi 7
  • Palbox-7 with up to 16 OFDMA STAs and 256 vSTAs; radios configurable for sniffing
  • Octobox Wireshark Synchrosniffer with sniffer probes on 4 Pal-7 and 16 STApal-7 radios
  • STApal-7 housing real devices with integrated Pal instruments
  • Multiperf multipoint-to-multipoint traffic with managed traffic endpoints
  • Complete isolation from outside interference
  • REST API for test automation benefits
  • Quickly and easily verify emerging 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be and legacy Wi-Fi devices in the ideal MIMO-OTA environment that supports MU-MIMO
  • Use multipoint-to-multipoint traffic while automatically recovering from dropped links during long test sequences
  • Test OFDMA and MU-MIMO simultaneously using a compact Octobox personal testbed
  • Use one or more STApals to scale to dozens of OFDMA stations in the testbed
  • Perform root cause analysis of issues using built-in multi-probe Synchrosniffing

Spirent’s Wi-Fi 7 testbeds incorporate RF chambers and instruments controlled by an integrated server with a browser-based user interface and a comprehensive API for test automation. The Octobox STApals function as Wi-Fi 7 traffic endpoints or Octobox Synchrosniffer probes for performance testing and expert analysis of Wi-Fi devices and systems.

Access Point TestingSTApal-7s with their own Linux host, offer maximum OFDMA performance on each radio.
Octobox SynchrosnifferSTApal-7 can capture and stream packets in PCAP format to Wireshark in real-time. All the Pal radios are synchronized via the Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
Octobox Multiperf Managed Traffic EndpointsSpirent’s Multiperf traffic tool: • Supports multipoint-to-multipoint traffic • Automatically recovers from disconnections that are common when testing the dynamic range to a point of disassociation due to low signal level; restarts traffic after reconnection • Supports iperf2, iperf3, and ping • Synchronized endpoints for one-way delay measurements and for correlating sniffer captures to the performance metrics plots • Supports bridging traffic for video, audio and other metrics
