MyConnection Server (MCS) is a comprehensive network assessment toolset designed to accurately measure, test, and report the performance, quality, and efficiency of network connections, from end-to-end and edge-to-edge. Whether you're evaluating the performance of global networks or isolated segments, MCS provides precise insights that are critical for optimizing network operations.
At the heart of MCS is our proprietary testing engine, which, along with its advanced data analysis and reporting capabilities, offers unparalleled visibility into network performance. This unique engine, developed by a team with deep expertise in network data flow, allows for a level of analysis and understanding that sets MCS apart from other solutions. The result is a powerful tool that provides detailed, actionable insights into how networks behave under various conditions, enabling better decision-making and network management.
This cutting-edge technology is also available as an API, making it highly adaptable and easy to integrate into a wide range of software or hardware environments. Whether you're deploying MCS in a data center, cloud, or on-premises environment, its flexibility ensures that it can meet the specific needs of your network infrastructure.
Powered by NetQCheckTM, both hardware and software Network Connection Satellites (NCSs) can be rapidly and securely deployed to establish testing edge points within any network, ensuring comprehensive and accurate network assessments.
MCS offers a family of highly secure, solid-state Network Connection Satellite (NCS) devices, engineered for data center environments and field support applications. These devices are designed with versatility in mind, supporting data center deployments with 1U rack-mountable options that feature 2 to 16 1Gbps NCS ports, as well as portable 2-port models ideal for field engineers.
Portable NCS devices are fully equipped to support all standard MCS testing protocols. Each device is equipped with two 1Gbps ports, providing an independent integrated I-point and e-point client, allowing a single device to perform precise testing as both client and server. This configuration operates without the need for an operating system, thereby eliminating shared application overheads and ensuring accurate, isolated testing results.
With their solid-state architecture, NCS devices eliminate potential threats associated with public or private domain deployments. This allows tests to be conducted within a customer’s private network securely and accurately, without requiring assessment tests to be hosted on customer-owned equipment, thereby safeguarding sensitive data and infrastructure.
Additionally, NCS devices support an extensive range of Quality metrics that are not available when testing with software-based NCSs or the MCS platform alone, offering a higher level of detail and reliability in performance evaluations.
Soft NCSs offer rapid deployment, often within seconds, and are compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems. These software-based satellites support all standard MCS tests and can function as both client and server. This dual functionality allows soft NCSs to perform end-to-end testing between deployed instances, providing a flexible and scalable solution for network performance assessments.
