September 6, 2011 – Fluke Networks invites network engineers to meet what it’s calling the world’s first Network Analysis Tablet as it kicks off a Canadian tour of the OptiView XG Network Analysis Tablet – a dedicated tablet with automated network and application analysis.

The tour starts September 7 (tomorrow!) and stops in various Canadian cities until October 7.

“OptiView XG raises the bar for analyzing and troubleshooting performance problems with the ease of use network engineers need; quick problem resolution end users want; and new technologies your organization needs to thrive in a connected world,” said Fluke. “It’s an instant, integrated window into your network in a form factor – the tablet – that you can take from the data center, to the production floor, to the office desktop.”

According to Fluke, the tablet is designed to provide a wide range of functionality necessary to adapt to the dynamic and diverse networks of today through various features including:
