Testing 100GbE Ethernet
The Z100 Loki supports testing of NRZ-based Ethernet at data rates of 10G / 25G / 40G / 50G / 100G. There is both a 2-port and a 4-port version.
The Z100 Loki is an Ethernet traffic generator capable of testing five NRZ speeds: 100GE, 50GE, 40GE, 25GE and 10GE. There is a 2-port and a 4-port version, both supporting QSFP28/QSFP+ transceivers.
These are available in a fixed 1U single-slot Compact chassis, or the modular 4U 12-slot B2400 chassis.
Users can configure up to 36 Loki 100G ports in a single B2400 chassis, or combine it with Odin, Loki, Thor and Freya traffic generators in the same chassis for unmatched convenience and flexibility.
The result is a versatile solution for performance and functional testing of network infrastructure and Ethernet equipment such as chips, switches, routers, NICs, taps, transceivers, cables, packet-brokers, and backhaul platforms.
Managing the Z100 Loki is done via XenaManager, the intuitive multi-user management software for generating and analyzing traffic on all Teledyne LeCroy Xena modules.
Renowned for its ease-of-use, XenaManager makes it quick and easy to do performance, QA, functional and benchmark testing.
Xena OpenAutomation (XOA) – our open-source scripting and automation framework – is also included to help automate any available command to the system, with tailored tests, scripting and standardized test methodologies.
Plus, there are standalone applications for testing RFC2544, RFC2889, RFC3918 and Y.1564.
