(NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : EXFO)(TSX TSX Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE before April, 2002) TSX Transfer from Stack Pointer to Index TSX True Space Extension : EXF EXF Exhaust Fan EXF External Fire EXF Standard Extract Format EXF Exception Fill EXF Exif Format File EXF Easy Fax EXF Exchange File ) announced today the launch of the IQS-8510 Packet Blazer(TM) Ethernet test module for remote testing and turn up of Ethernet services. The new Packet Blazer Ethernet module, housed inside the IQS-500 Intelligent Test System, provides users with a high-end, rack-mountable 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet test solution. The IQS-8510 Packet Blazer, with a full suite of features comparable to its portable counterpart (FTB-8510), is ideal for remote testing applications. With an IQS-8510 installed in a central office (CO), the portable FTB-8510 Packet Blazer can be carried to customer premises to provide a unique solution for Ethernet services turn-up and troubleshooting. This master-remote Packet Blazer application allows a single technician to provision an end-to-end Ethernet circuit, minimizing the time and cost of these critical tests. Additional monitoring applications between COs can be accomplished with IQS-8510 Packet Blazer modules installed at multiple sites. The IQS-8510 Packet Blazer is also well suited for laboratory and manufacturing environments. Parallel device testing and traffic generation is easily accomplished with multiple IQS-8510 modules installed in an IQS-500 test system. The IQS-8510 Packet Blazer features dual test ports, offering a high-density multi-port test system that can generate wire-speed traffic necessary to stress-test Ethernet devices. The IQS-8510 Packet Blazer Ethernet test module will be showcased at booth 2213 during OFC 2004 from February 24-26 at the Los Angeles Convention Center The Los Angeles Convention Center (abbreviated LACC) is a convention center in downtown Los Angeles. The LACC hosts annual events such as the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show, and was best known to video games fans as host to E3 until its cessation in 2006. .
