Case Study: North American Service Provider achieves always-on network service and pervasive traffic visibility with NETSCOUT nGenius 5000 series

North American Service Provider Switches to NETSCOUT for Traffic Aggregation Needs

This North American service provider, with thousands of employees across multiple subsidiaries and over $10 billion in annual revenue, delivers mobile and wireline services to residential and business customers. To protect its reputation for reliable service, the network engineering team needed an always-on monitoring solution that provided pervasive visibility into traffic, supported 10–100 Gbps interfaces, offered high port density and filtering, and fit strict budget and future‑proofing requirements.

They selected NETSCOUT’s nGenius 5000 series packet flow switches (nGenius 5010 and 5100) to complement their nGeniusONE Service Assurance platform and InfiniStreamNG appliances. The integrated solution delivered the required performance, simplified monitoring via a single dashboard, enabled rapid identification and mitigation of service issues, reduced vendor complexity and operational costs, and met both current and long‑term network visibility needs.
