Ixia completes acquisition of Agilent's N2X data networks product line


Nov 03, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Ixia, a provider of converged IP performance test systems, has completed the acquisition of the Agilent Technologies's N2X data networks product line for approximately $44 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities.

The acquisition was structured as an asset purchase and closed in October 2009. In addition to strong broadband and carrier access protocol expertise, the N2X is known in the industry for its intuitive and powerful user interface and excellent quality.

Ixia is expected to leverage the N2X products and customer base to further penetrate markets, particularly service providers and other customers in the EMEA and Asia/Pac regions.


Ixia will continue to enhance, develop and support the N2X product line through 2015. Existing N2X customers will be able to take immediate advantage of Ixia's extreme scalability, speed ethernet support, and layer 4-7 application testing through the company's Fusion initiative.
