• Measures UDP jitter
  Jitter occurs when data packets do not arrive at the destination in the same order they were sent. MyVoIP simulates voice traffic over a UDP connection and measures the amount of jitter occurring, and reports the associated level of voice call quality.
• Measures video and audio packet loss
  When data packets are lost or discarded it negatively impacts video quality. MyVoIP measures the amount of lost and discarded packets and reports the associated level of sound quality.
• Customize VoIP simulation test, test load capacity
  Select a codec to use for the VoIP simulation to conform to your or your VoIP provider's environment, or test the performance using multiple VoIP lines.

MyVoIP simulates the following codecs:

• G.711 (64 Kbps)
• G.729 (8 Kbps)
• G.723.1 (6.3 Kbps)
• G.723.1 (5.3 Kbps)
• G.726 (32 Kbps)
• G.726 (24 Kbps)
• G.728 (16 Kbps)

VoIP test settings that can be customized include packet size, number of send packets, and number of VoIP lines to simulate.


• Reports the number of supported VoIP lines
  MyVoIP measures the bandwidth capacity of a connection and reports the number VoIP lines the connection can support.
• Reports the Mean Opinion Score (MOS)
  MOS is a numeric measure of the sound quality of a communication connection. Although the score is subjective it provides a widely-used method to rate the quality of voice communication. The score is normally between 1 and 5 with 5 being the best. In MyVoIP, a VoIP simulation that drops below 3.5 is considered poor quality, a measure of 4.2-4.5 is considered good quality.

• Automated Remote Testing (CAT Add-on)
  Easily perform automated network testing from remote systems, to continuously measure connection quality over time, or to quickly troubleshoot a connection problem during a support call -- all managed from the browser-based MCS control panel. See the network path and performance originating from a remote customer desktop or remote data center, to your application server or other location.
• AlertAdvisor (CAT Add-on)
  Get instant notifications by email of poor test results, set alert levels for Informational, Warning or Critical, see real-time browser-based reports for alert status.
• Satellite Servers (CAT Add-on)
  Perform broadband testing to remote systems, easily deploy satellite testing servers to see broadband performance between multiple points on a global network, remote customer locations, partner locations, etc. Satellite servers can be created and deployed in minutes, easily managed from the MCS control panel.
• NEW! SQL Database API (BusinessCenter and NetworkCenter only)
  Automatically capture MCS metrics to an external MySQL or SQL Server database.

• Centralized Database with browser access
  Easily perform automated network testing from remote systems -- see the network path and performance originating from a remote customer desktop or remote data center, to your application server or other location. More info.
• Customizable Display enables self-branded connection testing portals
  The MCS browser-based connection tests are performed via Java applets, which can be easily incorporated into your own web pages with your messaging and branding. You can create multiple web pages utilizing the same Java applet, with customized HTML, JavaScript, or different applet configurations to provide different views and behaviors as desired.
• Plug-in Architecture
  The MCS framework architecture enables you to mix and match network analysis tools and service to fit your environment, and provides the flexibility to easily modify and add components as your business needs grow.
