The Ixia IxN2X Multiservice Test Solution is your platform for testing success. IxN2X is designed to test IP forwarding devices such as routers and switches that deliver video, VoIP, data services and business VPNs. It is used in "out-of-service" lab environments to test network components at real-world scale prior to their deployment in live networks.
IxN2X allows you to test next generation networks with confidence by generating deterministic, repeatable test stimuli and making nanosecond-accurate measurements. Its broad range of protocol emulations, traffic encapsulations and pre-configured test scenarios provide comprehensive coverage to validate all areas of the network. Sophisticated sorting and filtering functions rapidly isolate problems, shortening time to insight for test engineers. IxN2X offers a range of chassis form factors and test interfaces to suit all customer needs.
On acquiring Agilent's N2X product line in October 2009, Ixia committed to a partnership that would yield the best of both worlds, and initiated the FUSION program - with the motto "embrace, extend, and unify" - to investigate synergies and develop a strategy for unification. IxN2X is the new name for the excellent N2X product, integrated into the Ixia product line.
IxN2X retains all of the core strengths that it offered prior to acquisition by Ixia. Those strengths - such as ease of use and routing scalability - will not change, while the overall platform benefits from Ixia's track record in innovation and high density, low cost hardware.
For high density 10 GE test scenarios, the IxN2X application can be run on Ixia NGY load modules. The NGY series offers 4 or 8 ports of 10 GE per load module, scaling up to 96 10 GE ports in a single chassis.
Run your IxN2X system and your Ixia XM system in a single configuration with the simple addition of a specially designed timing synchronization module. The IxN2X user interface automatically recognizes Ixia NGY load modules as additional ports available for your test, making integration seamless. Existing scripts and saved configurations can be used immediately, saving time on test setup.
