    We have changed the course of the evolution: Victoria Combo for the price of Victoria STM-16
    NGN ¦ SDH ¦ SONET ¦ 2.5 or 10Gbps ¦ Battery ¦ Hand-held ¦ Wireless ¦ TCP/IP  ¦ Multi-user
    There are new additions to the Victoria Combo family. Besides the original, modular, stackable tester, there are now new dedicated testers for STM-16, OC-48, STM-64 and OC-192 networks.

    The new testers have the same power and sophistication as the original Victoria Combo, but they are dedicated to testing on one interface at a time. This way you have a high-level, dedicated tester at a very affordable price.

    >Synopsis
    Trend Communications announces two new Victoria Combo STM-N/OC-M models for testing SDH networks. You can now buy a complete Victoria Combo STM-16/OC-M model for the same price as a Victoria STM-16/OC-48 model. 

    Each new Victoria Combo STM-N/OC-M is supplied as a complete tester for the transmisson technology you want to test. Competitively priced and with the opportunity to upgrade and add more modules as and when required, this not only offers state of the art testing but also secures your investment. 

    These new models have the advanced, powerful testing capabilities of the existing modular Victoria Combo. Each individual tester comes with a large colour touchscreen and the ability to be used remotely using wireless or physical connections.

    If, at a later date, you want the ability to add a new transmission technology module you will be able to upgrade your Victoria Combo STM-N/OC-M tester.
