10GBASE-T Ethernet LAN Services Module

10GBASE-T Ethernet LAN Services Module

Ixia's 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Services Module (LSM), along with the Ixia 10GBASE-T adapter module, offers unprecedented scalability, performance, and service testing flexibility. The Ixia 10GBASE-T adapter module provides the following features and capabilities:

  • 10Gbps full duplex data rate over a single 4-pair UTP cable
  • Reach: 45m on Category 5e, 55m on Category 6, 100m on Category 6a and 7
  • IEEE 802.3an, Clause 28 and Clause 55 compliant auto-negotiation
  • Simulated cable disconnect
  • RJ-45 Front Panel Connector
  • Link/Tx and Rx/Error LEDs

The Ixia 10GE LSM allows the use of many different physical interfaces and enables a broad portfolio of edge/core testing solutions for the most demanding test environments, including performance, scalability, and conformance testing of Layer 2-3 routing protocols and high performance Layer 4-7 testing. It supports wire-speed 10 Gbps IPv4/v6 traffic generation and advanced analysis, as well as IPv4/v6 routing and bridging protocol emulation.

Ixia's 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Services Module

"10GBASE-T presents an inflection point. The Ixia 10GBASE-T module is a critical and necessary first step in the industry's ability to offer cost-effective 10GbE switches and NICs to customers and accelerate the 10GbE market. Ixia's test kit has been vital to our product development effort. All of the switch and server OEMs need standards-complaint test gear now for Layer 2/4 testing of their 10GBASE-T ports and NICs to meet their time to market requirements."
