I'm currently remote-debugging a website on my iPhone using Safari v8 and need to simulate different network speeds.
The Chrome Developer Tools have the functionality to throttle the network connection (simulate 3G, wifi etc.) or even to completely switch it off.
Does the Safari Web Inspector have similar functionality?
At the moment I'm getting around it by just switching off my wifi as I just need to test no network for now, but might need the functionality in the future.

There is currently not a way to do that natively in Safari but you might try using something like Charles Proxy that can throttle your browser or system connection (win, mac, linux).
With Web Inspector open, developers can inspect all the resources on a web page. The Web Inspector window contains editable HTML and notes regarding the styles and layers of the web page in a separate panel. With Safari 9 and OS X 10.9 Mavericks, Apple introduced Responsive Design Mode in Web Inspector.

Just found a way to do it without having to use a proxy like Charles:
