Xcellon-Multis® Reduced 40GE Load Modules

Data Sheets

Evolve Your Higher Speed Ethernet Testing

 

As bandwidth requirements press the limits of networking devices, equipment manufacturers must keep pace by introducing even higher-density 10GE and 40GE gear. Xcellon-Multis is Ixia’s next-generation architecture and test solution to satisfy a wide range of testing needs. As service providers and large enterprises implement this same equipment in their own networks, they must also test and verify performance and functionality prior to deployment.

 

Ixia’s Xcellon-Multis load module family comprises the industry’s highest-density 10GE and 40GE higher speed Ethernet (HSE) test equipment, providing more flexible test coverage for high-density test requirements. These ultradense load modules bring a higher return on investment by reducing overall costs associated with product licensing, space, power, and cooling. 

 

The Xcellon-Multis Reduced 40GE load modules offer industry-leading high-density, cost-effective, and flexible 40GE capability for testing next-generation multi-terabit networks. Used in conjunction with Ixia applications, the user can quickly and accurately assess the performance and reliability of network equipment and solutions before they are deployed.

 

Highlights

 

• Do more with less: 

° Less cabling, power, cooling, total cost of ownership, rack space, licensing

° More ports, bandwidth, flexibility,  capability, horsepower

 

• Cost effective: reduces total cost of ownership with more ports in a single chassis; 120x40GE ports with fan-outenabled technology

 

• Usability: a broad feature-set that is common with Xcellon-Multis Reduced 10GE and 10/40GE  load modules

 

• Low-to-mid-range L2-3 protocol scale and performance testing for routing/switching and data center test cases
